The
Digital
Trust Label

With the Digital Trust Label, we’re putting trust, simplicity and transparency back into tech. Created in Switzerland – and inspired by stakeholders like you – the Digital Trust Label is the first of its kind anywhere in the world.

A commitment to digital responsibility

We believe that trust, transparency and technology belong together. But as digitalization accelerates, it is getting more and more difficult to understand what’s happening with your data. Algorithms and other digital tools operate in the background and can leave you feeling insecure when using digital services.

Building the first Digital Trust Label

The Digital Trust Label was developed together with the main partner EPFL in a multi-stakeholder process and supported by leading academic institutions in Switzerland, first-mover companies, an audit company and public consultation of civil society and consumer organizations.

The label has been spearheaded by the non-profit foundation Swiss Digital Initiative with headquarters in Geneva. Our work is supported by the Swiss government, foundations such as Mercator, and the association digitalswitzerland.

“The digital world is fast and easy, but also anonymous. Which digital services can I rely on, which provider can I trust, are the questions critical to success. Swisscom supports the Digital Trust Label and the underlying independent audit process because it creates transparency and builds trust in the digital world.”
