# SKILL: Business Ethics & Compliance (The Conscience)

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Filosofía**: "Don't be evil. Profitable, but ethical."
> Trust is the hardest currency to earn and the easiest to lose.

## Core Concepts

| Area | Focus | Key Document/Action |
|------|-------|---------------------|
| **Privacy** | LFPDPPP (Mexico) / GDPR. | **Aviso de Privacidad**. |
| **Design** | User Experience (UX). | Avoiding **Dark Patterns**. |
| **Rights** | User Data Control. | **ARCO Rights**. |
| **Planet** | Sustainability. | Minimizing Digital Carbon Footprint. |

## Critical Patterns

### 1. Data Privacy (Mexico - LFPDPPP)
*   **Aviso de Privacidad**: Mandatory. Must state *Why* and *How* data is used.
*   **ARCO Rights**: Access, Rectification, Cancellation, Opposition. You MUST have a channel (email) to handle these.
*   **Consent**: Must be express ("I agree" checkbox), not implied (Pre-checked box).

### 2. Anti-Dark Patterns (What to Avoid)
*   ❌ **Roach Motel**: Easy to sign up, impossible to cancel (e.g., must call phone support).
*   ❌ **Privacy Zuckering**: Tricking users into sharing more info than needed.
*   ❌ **Sneak into Basket**: Adding unexpected items/fees at checkout.
*   ❌ **Forced Continuity**: Free trial converts to paid silently.

### 3. Ethical Design
*   ✅ **Transparent Pricing**: No hidden fees.
*   ✅ **One-Click Cancel**: Respect the user's freedom.
*   ✅ **Data Minimization**: Collect only what you need.

## Instructions for Agent

1.  **Check Privacy**: "Do you have an `Aviso de Privacidad`?"
2.  **Audit Flows**: "Is cancellation as easy as signup?"
3.  **Data Minimization**: "Why do we need their phone number if we don't call them?"
