COMPLIANCE

In line with the Agora Invest Group’s commitment to defending and improving the rights and conditions of its employees and collaborators, both internal and external, a Communications System has been developed to report any incidents that violate the group’s internal regulations or current legislation.

To ensure compliance with the above, and in accordance with the principles of transparency, responsibility and ethics, we provide you with the following documents:

·       General policy

·       User manual

This COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM guarantees the complete anonymity of the person reporting, the prohibition of retaliation and the protection of personal data.

Communications will be anonymous by default, unless the whistleblower voluntarily decides otherwise. The investigation process will be carried out through the same channel through which the report was received, so it will be necessary to keep the tracking code that will be assigned to you in the message confirming receipt of the report.

Anonymity will only be lifted with the express consent of the whistleblower or when it constitutes a necessary and proportionate obligation imposed by legal provisions in force in the context of an investigation carried out by the national authorities within the framework of legal proceedings.

During the process, compliance with data protection legislation (LOPD and RGPD) will be guaranteed.

USE OF THE COMMUNICATIONS CHANNEL

When you submit a communication, you will notice that it is directed to an online tool outside the Agora Invest Group domain. The message will be transmitted to the Govertis tool (an external provider of the Agora Invest Group) in order to guarantee total objectivity and transparency in the communication management process.

In any case, the external provider will comply with the instructions established by the Agora Invest Group, always in accordance with current legislation.

The Communications Channel may be used by any employee of the Agora Invest Group or by any third party who may have knowledge of conduct contrary to the internal regulations of the Agora Invest Group or to current legislation.

This Channel is not suitable for matters related to your working conditions or disciplinary issues. In such cases, you should follow the policies established by the Agora Invest Group.
