Understanding the People Pillar
The Responsible Digital People pillar highlights the human and social impact of digital technologies. It addresses issues of accessibility, inclusion, privacy, online ethics, security and the mental health of users. The aim is to create a digital environment that respects and protects individual rights and needs.

The main issues
Accessibility
Accessibility is an approach that aims to ensure that digital technologies are available to everyone, including people with disabilities.
Inclusivity
Inclusion aims to create an online environment where everyone feels welcome and represented, regardless of their origin, age or situation.
Protection of privacy
Privacy protection ensures that the collection and use of personal data respects confidentiality standards and the fundamental rights of individuals, while encouraging transparency and informed consent.
Security
Digital security ensures that users are protected from online threats such as data theft and cyberbullying.
Health
It is up to those involved in the digital sector to encourage balanced and healthy use of digital technologies, as well as respectful and responsible behaviour. It is their role to promote practices such as the fight against disinformation, hateful content and online manipulation.
Creating an inclusive, ethical and secure digital environment
This pillar guarantees that digital technologies are accessible to all, that privacy is preserved, that ethics are respected online, that users are safe and that their mental health is taken into account.
