사업 파트너 행동 수칙

At Digital Edge we aim to adhere to the highest level of ethical conduct in all aspects of our business. This also means ensuring our business partners share an equally strong commitment to ethical business practices.

Digital Edge is providing this Business Partner Code of Conduct (the “Code”) to all of our business partners to ensure that the expectations and standards upheld at Digital Edge are understood and adhered to by our business partners. This Code is founded on the principles set forth in our Business Code of Conduct which is applicable to all our employees, officers, and directors and which is available on the Digital Edge website www.digitaledgedc.com.

Please take the time to review this Code, become familiar with it and draw guidance from it. As one of our valued business partners, we expect you to comply with this Code insofar as it relates to our business relationship. You are responsible for establishing policies and monitoring practices so that all your employees, independent contractors, consultants, and all others who do business for or on your behalf understand and comply with the provisions of this Code.

If a situation arises that, in your opinion, violates this Code, we expect you to report it immediately to Digital Edge’s Ethics Helpline identifying yourself as a business partner.

Compliance with Laws and Regulations

Business partners are expected to act within the bounds of all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

Corruption, Extortion, Bribery or Embezzlement

Business partners must conduct their activities in full compliance with the anti-corruption and anti bribery laws of the country, or countries, in which they are operating and with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act, and the principles of the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials.

Business partners may not directly or indirectly through a third party, pay, offer, promise to pay, or receive bribes, kickbacks or facilitating payments from any individual, whether that individual is a public official or a private party. A public official is any person who is paid with government funds.

This includes individuals who work for a local, state/provincial, or national government, or a public international organization, as well as employees of public (government-owned or operated) schools and state-owned enterprises. Employees at such organizations are considered public officials regardless of title or position.
