Structure, Business and Supply Chain
The Datasite Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking policy statement applies to all employees of Datasite, and its worldwide affiliates and subsidiary legal entities. In performance of its core business, Datasite engages with suppliers, vendors, contractors, partners and other entities or individuals who perform services or provide resources for Datasite and its subsidiaries. Datasite intends that the policy herein be applied to any entity that works with Datasite.
Policies On Slavery and Human Trafficking
Datasite has a responsibility to be alert to slavery and human trafficking in our business and in our work with third party vendors and suppliers. Our Anti-Slavery Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
Due Diligence Processes for Slavery and Human Trafficking
As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, Datasite is committed to building and maintaining long-standing relationships with qualified customers, third party vendors and suppliers and to make clear our expectations of business behavior. Datasite has established a framework for business accountability to allow for raising issues, and reporting slavery and human trafficking. In furtherance of these goals, Datasite has in place systems to identify and assess potential risk areas in our supply chains, monitor potential risk areas in our supply chains, and a hotline program to both encourage reporting and protect whistleblowers.
Supplier Adherence to Our Values and Ethics
With regards to our national or international vendors or suppliers, we expect these entities to have suitable anti-slavery and human trafficking policies and processes. We expect each entity in the supply chain to adopt ‘one-up’ due diligence on the next link in the chain. Datasite has zero tolerance to slavery and human trafficking. We expect all those that we engage in business with to comply with our values and the law. We require this contractually. Datasite has in place a dedicated legal compliance counsel and dedicated involvement from the procurement team.
