Trust Center

Trust, security and responsibility as parts of the product.

Emotional Trust builds products for sensitive human and organisational contexts. That's why we don't treat privacy, security, traceability and clear boundaries as add-ons — we treat them as part of the product.

Foundations

Security & Privacy

Our products are built for contexts in which trust, personal data and organisational responsibility come together.

  • Data minimisation
  • Purpose limitation
  • Transparent user control
  • Separated product and training logic
  • No medical diagnosis
  • No covert performance assessment of employees

Method

What “measurable” means here — and what it doesn't

“Trust is measurable” at Emotional Trust refers to traceable reflection and transparent paths of effect — not to biometric recognition, not to person-level scoring, not to hidden inference.

  • Traceable reflection. Every self-assessment is visible; every step in the reflection flow is user-initiated. No implicit tracking, no hidden evaluation.
  • Transparent paths of effect. When a product gives a hint, the derivation is readable (which input → which recommendation). No black-box diagnosis, no biometric inference.
  • Operator control, not diagnosis. We measure what the person actively reports — not what could be inferred from face, voice or data.
  • Method before model. The method-of-measurement is explicit in each product's documentation; it is auditable, not buried in model weights.

AI responsibility

Responsible AI

MAEVE and future AI features at Emotional Trust are meant to support people with reflection, orientation and co-regulation — not to decide about them.

Explainable recommendations

Instead of hidden judgement: users understand why a recommendation is given and can disagree with it.

Human decision authority

Instead of automating sensitive judgement: decisions with emotional or organisational weight stay with people.

Clear escalation

In situations of risk, uncertainty or medical relevance, our products point to qualified help — they do not replace it.
