INTRODUCTORY INSPECTOR ACADEMY · TOPIC 9 OF 10
9 — Quality Assurance, Ethics and Privacy
Review states
Submitted observations go through quality and duplicate screening. A verified unique site has a persistent program identity.
No public shaming
Public maps focus on generalized coverage, participation and improvement, not business-specific violation pins.
Data and photo handling
Access to exact coordinates, personal information, original photos and staff notes is limited to approved roles. Learners should not send private images to social media.
Practice scenario
A participant asks to publicly post a photo of a named business with a 'polluter' label. Refuse; keep the material in authorized review, with neutral educational language.
Knowledge check
May you publish an owner's address or submitted photo just because it was uploaded?
Recommended answer: No. Approved permissions and privacy controls apply.
This self-check is educational. It does not issue a certificate, authorization, exam score or continuing education credit.
