When Echo360 becomes aware that a third party is using or disclosing Personal Information or Personal Data in a manner contrary to this Policy, Echo360 will endeavor to take reasonable steps to prevent or stop such use or disclosure. To the extent applicable law requires an individual’s consent before disclosing Personal Information or Personal Data to third parties, Echo360 will endeavor to obtain the individual’s consent prior to such transfer.

Echo360 is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships, and to implementing and enforcing systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not present or permitted in our own business practices or across any of our controllable supply chains. Our practices and policies in this regard are guided by the United Kingdom’s Modern Slavery Act 2015 and the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018.

This policy applies to all persons working for Echo360 or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees, directors, officers, volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, consultants, third-party representatives, and business partners.

All persons are required to avoid any activity that might lead to or suggest a breach of this policy and must notify their line manager OR a company Director as soon as soon as they believe or suspect that a conflict with this policy has occurred or may occur in the future.

If any person working for Echo360 is unsure about whether a particular act, the treatment of workers more generally, or their working conditions within any tier of Echo360’s supply chains constitute any of the various forms of modern slavery, they must raise it with Human Resources via email @ gwright@echo360.com

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY

Echo360 is an equal opportunity employer and will provide equality in employment for all people employed or seeking employment. Every person will be given a fair and equitable chance to compete for appointment, promotion or transfer, and to pursue their career as effectively as others. Employment decisions relating to appointment, promotion and career development will be determined according to individual merit and competence. 

Consistent with this, Echo360 does not condone any form of unlawful discrimination or vilification, including that which relates to: gender; pregnancy; marital/domestic status; disability; race, color, national extraction, social origin, descent, and ethnic or national origin; age; family responsibilities, family status; status as a parent or carer; racial classification; sexuality; religious belief or activity; political belief or activity; trade union activity; physical features; medical record; criminal record; or any other legally protected attribute. 

In all cases, no factors other than performance and competence are to be used as the basis for performance assessment, training and development opportunities and promotions. 

GENDER EQUALITY POLICY

Within the principle of providing equal employment opportunities for all qualified employees and applicants, the Company is committed to promoting a workplace culture that is inclusive, supportive, and respectful of all employees, regardless of gender. Our commitment to gender equality is manifest in the following areas:

1. Non-discrimination

We do not tolerate discrimination based on gender, gender identity, gender expression, or any other protected characteristic. We expect all employees to treat each other with respect and dignity, and to avoid any behavior or language that could be considered discriminatory.

2. Equal Opportunity

We provide equal employment opportunities to all employees, including opportunities for promotion, training, and development. We do not discriminate based on gender, and we are committed to creating a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

3. Pay Equity

We are committed to paying all employees fairly and equitably, regardless of gender. We regularly review our pay practices to identify and address any disparities, and we strive to provide competitive compensation packages to all employees.

4. Harassment and Bullying

We do not tolerate any form of harassment or bullying, including sexual harassment, in the workplace. We take all complaints of harassment or bullying seriously and investigate them thoroughly. We provide support and resources to employees who experience harassment or bullying, and we take appropriate disciplinary action against anyone found to have engaged in such behavior.

ANTI-HARRASSMENT POLICY

Harassment Will Not Be Tolerated

Echo360 is committed to providing a workplace that is free of verbal, physical and visual forms of harassment so that everyone can work in a productive, respectful and professional environment. Harassment in employment based on sex, race, national origin, religion, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disability, or any other basis prohibited by local, state or federal law is strictly prohibited. Echo360 does not tolerate harassment, based upon any protected status, by anyone in the workplace — supervisors, co-workers, or non-employees. Employees who violate this policy are subject to discipline, up to and including possible termination.

Examples of harassment based on race, national origin, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, age or disability can include, but are not limited to:

• Cartoons or other visual displays of objects, pictures or posters that depict such protected groups in a derogatory way;

• Verbal conduct, including making or using derogatory comments, epithets, slurs and jokes towards such groups or individuals based on the identified characteristics.

Sexual harassment is generally defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other visual, verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:

• Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of employment;

• Submission to or rejection of such conduct affects employment opportunities; or

• The conduct interferes with an employee’s work or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.

 

Sexual harassment includes harassment based on another person’s gender or harassment based upon pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. It also includes harassment of another employee of the same gender as the harasser.

Examples of sexual harassment include, but are not limited to, the following types of behavior:

• Unwelcome sexual advances, like requests for dates or propositions for sexual favors;

• Excessive, one-sided, romantic attention in the form of requests for dates, love letters, calls, emails or gifts;

• Offering or conditioning an employment benefit, like a raise, a promotion or a special job assignment, in exchange for sexual favors;

• Making or threatening reprisals, or changing performance expectations after an employee has turned down a sexual advance;

• Visual or physical conduct, like leering, making sexual gestures, or displaying sexually suggestive objects, pictures, cartoons, calendars or posters in the workplace;

• Verbal conduct, like making or using derogatory comments, epithets, slurs, teasing and jokes of a sexual nature;

• Verbal or written comments (including emails or electronic messages) about an individual’s sex life or body;

• Sexually degrading words used to describe an individual;

• Suggestive or obscene letters, emails, notes or invitations; and

• Unwelcome physical contact, including pats, hugs, brushes, touches, shoulder rubs, assaults, or impeding or blocking movements.

This policy is also violated if an employee is fired, denied a job, or denied some other employment benefit because the employee refused to grant sexual favors, complained about harassment, or assisted in an investigation of harassment. Echo360 is committed to taking reasonable steps to prevent harassment from occurring and will take immediate and appropriate action when we know that unlawful harassment has occurred. To do this, however, we need the cooperation of all employees at all levels.

ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICY

The Company is committed to conducting our business with integrity and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Corruption in any form is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated. We have a responsibility to act with honesty and transparency in all of our business dealings. 

The Company’s Anti-Corruption Policy includes but is not limited to:  

• Bribery, including offering or accepting gifts, money, or other benefits in exchange for business or personal favors. 

• Kickbacks, including giving or receiving money or other benefits in exchange for business referrals or contracts. 

• Fraud, including misrepresenting company information or falsifying records. 

• Any other corrupt or unethical behavior that violates the law or company policies. 

All employees are required to comply with this policy and any applicable laws and regulations. Employees who violate this policy may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. The company reserves the right to take legal action against any employee or third party involved in corruption or unethical behavior

FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION POLICY

The Company recognizes and respects our employees’ right to express their opinions and views freely, both inside and outside of the workplace. We believe that open communication and the exchange of ideas are essential to creating a productive, creative, and supportive workplace culture, and we foster employee freedom of expression through the following:

Open Communication

We encourage open communication and the exchange of ideas among all employees, and we strive to create an environment where everyone feels comfortable expressing their opinions and views. We believe that diverse perspectives lead to better decision-making and problem-solving, and we value the contributions of all employees.

Respectful Communication

While we encourage open communication, we also expect all employees to communicate in a respectful and professional manner. We do not tolerate any form of harassment, discrimination, or bullying in the workplace, including any communication that could be considered threatening or offensive.

Confidentiality

We recognize that certain information must be kept confidential, such as trade secrets, proprietary information, and personal information. We expect all employees to respect the confidentiality of such information and to avoid disclosing it to unauthorized parties.

Social Media

We recognize that social media has become an important tool for communication and expression, both inside and outside of the workplace. We expect all employees to use social media in a responsible and professional manner, and to avoid any communication that could be considered defamatory, harassing, discriminatory, or offensive. 

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY STATEMENT

Echo360 is committed to reducing its impact on the environment. We will strive to improve our environmental performance over time and to initiate additional projects and activities that will further reduce our impacts on the environment.

Our commitment to the environment extends to our customers, our staff, our partners, and the community in which we operate. We are committed to:

• Comply with all applicable environmental regulations;

• Prevent pollution whenever possible;

• Train all staff on our environmental program and empower them to contribute and participate;

• Communicate our environmental commitment and efforts to our customers, staff, and our community; and

• Continually improve over time by striving to measure our environmental impacts and by setting goals to reduce these impacts each year.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY IMPACT A: Solution Sustainability

Echo360’s solution is hosted by Amazon Web Services and Echo360 trusts AWS to minimise its impact on the environment as much as possible. AWS has publicly shared its commitment to sustainable energy with a goal to power the global AWS infrastructure with 100% renewable energy by 2025.

AWS is rapidly progressing towards meeting these goals by focusing on four complementary areas.

• First, AWS is continuously working on ways to increase the energy efficiency of its facilities and equipment, innovating the design and manufacture of its servers, storage, and networking equipment to reduce energy use and improve operational excellence as the business grows.

• Second, AWS works with industry associations, international, federal, and state governments to increase incentives and create a more favourable environment for renewable energy.

• Third, AWS works with its various power providers that supply AWS data centres around the world to increase the availability of renewables in their power supply while maintaining low prices.

• And fourth, AWS has funded many wind and solar PPAs to increase the overall amount of renewable energy available on the grids that serve AWS data centres.

These initiatives will be extended to the global AWS data centres over time.

Amazon is part of the American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE – http://www.acore.org/) and participates in the U.S. Partnership for Renewable Energy Finance (US PREF – http://uspref.org/) to increase its work with state and federal policymakers and other stakeholders to enable more renewable energy opportunities for cloud providers.

Please visit https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/sustainability/ for more details about AWS’s approach to sustainability.
