Policy

At Appier, an unwavering commitment to integrity, transparency, and responsible conduct forms the foundation of our approach to business ethics, setting a standard for every member of our organization. This includes interactions with clients, partners, colleagues, and the broader community. We strictly prohibit any form of unethical behavior, including fraud, dishonesty, and conflicts of interest. Additionally, we prioritize compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. By adhering to this policy, we aim to foster an environment of trust and accountability, ensuring that our business practices not only meet high ethical standards but also contribute positively to the broader social and economic landscape.

Implementation Framework

Mandatory Training

Appier places a strong emphasis on mandatory compliance training programs to ensure a secure and ethical workplace. 
  • Global Code of Conduct: design to instill a strong ethical foundation and guide our actions in every facet of business.
  • Information Security training: empower employees to recognize and mitigate potential risks, fostering a culture of data protection and cyber resilience.
  • Insider Trading training: equip employees with the knowledge to navigate complex financial regulations, promoting transparency and compliance. 

Regular Internal Audits

Appier's internal audit team diligently conducts routine and comprehensive assessments, meticulously scrutinizing every facet of the company's operations to ascertain and affirm compliance with established rules, policies, and regulations, thereby safeguarding the integrity and ethical standards of the organization. 
Key areas of regular audits:

  • Code of Conduct and Ethics Policies: Review the company's code of conduct and ethics policies once a year to ensure they are comprehensive, up-to-date, and accessible to all employees.

  • Training Programs: Check once a year to confirm whether the company conducts regular training programs on ethical conduct for employees at all levels as well as assess the attendance rate.

  • Whistle blower Protection Program: Assess at least once a year whether the company has mechanisms in place to protect and encourage employees to report unethical behavior or misconduct. In the event of any substantial ethical concerns, the internal audit team is responsible for disclosing them to the Audit & Supervisory Committee.
