1. As this Code expresses the consensus of the profession on ethical issues, it is a means to educate both the public and aspiring professionals about the ethical obligations of all software engineers.

2. These Principles should influence software engineers to consider broadly who is affected by their work; to examine if they and their colleagues are treating other human beings with due respect; to consider how the public, if reasonably well informed, would view their decisions; to analyze how the least empowered will be affected by their decisions; and to consider whether their acts would be judged worthy of the ideal professional working as a software engineer.

3. In particular, software engineers shall, as appropriate:Temper all technical judgments by the need to support and maintain human values.

4. Support, as members of a profession, other software engineers striving to follow this Code.

5. In particular, software engineers shall, as appropriate:Strive for high quality, acceptable cost and a reasonable schedule, ensuring significant tradeoffs are clear to and accepted by the employer and the client, and are available for consideration by the user and the public.

8. Ensure that software engineers know the employer's policies and procedures for protecting passwords, files and information that is confidential to the employer or confidential to others.

9. Software engineers are those who contribute by direct participation or by teaching, to the analysis, specification, design, development, certification, maintenance and testing of software systems.

10. However, even in this generality, the Code provides support for software engineers and managers of software engineers who need to take positive action in a specific case by documenting the ethical stance of the profession.

1. Not influence others to undertake any action that involves a breach of this Code.

2. These situations require the software engineer to use ethical judgment to act in a manner which is most consistent with the spirit of the Code of Ethics and Professional Practice, given the circumstances.

3. In all these judgments concern for the health, safety and welfare of the public is primary; that is, the "Public Interest" is central to this Code.

4. Avoid associations with businesses and organizations which are in conflict with this code.

5. Support, as members of a profession, other software engineers striving to follow this Code.

6. The Code helps to define those actions that are ethically improper to request of a software engineer or teams of software engineers.

7. Improve their knowledge of this Code, its interpretation, and its application to their work.

8. It is not intended that the individual parts of the Code be used in isolation to justify errors of omission or commission.

9. The Code is not a simple ethical algorithm that generates ethical decisions.

10. Provide for due process in hearing charges of violation of an employer's policy or of this Code.
