Center for Industry Self-Regulation

BBB National Programs’ Center for Industry Self-Regulation (CISR), a 501(c)(3) non-profit, was created to harness the historic power of self-regulation in the United States in order to empower business accountability.

Our Mission

CISR was founded upon the belief that businesses and consumers alike benefit from a marketplace where businesses work collaboratively to tackle tough issues and build trust through high standards of accountability.

We are dedicated to: 

  • Research on the conditions necessary for effective industry self-regulation.  
  • Education that supports responsible business leaders developing fair, future-proof best practices. 
  • The incubation of new self-regulatory programs that will enhance trust with consumers, partners, and regulators. 

Institute for Responsible Influence

Brands, talent agencies, industry associations, and influencers are convening to build the Institute for Responsible Influence, which will provide creators and influencers with training, certification, and ongoing resources to ensure transparency, promote responsible content creation, and focus on building consumer trust in the creator economy.
