      Protection of CorePeelers Information on Personally Owned Devices and Information Security Pledge

       

      CorePeelers standards requires every Contributor to safeguard and protect CorePeelers information stored on systems regardless of the media upon which it is maintained. This policy applies to all CorePeelers assets such as servers, desktop and laptop computers fax machines, voicemail and other systems. It also applies to Restricted, Confidential and Internal CorePeelers information transmitted or stored on devices over which the business has no direct control.  These devices may include desktop/laptop computers (used for telecommuting or the processing of work from home), personal digital assistants (used to store business calendars, tasks, contacts, memos, passwords and other information), and mobile phones (used to communicate business information over unsecured radio bands or to access email). It is the policy of the Company to educate each Contributor on the proper protection of CorePeelers information on personally owned devices.

      The use of non-CorePeelers owned devices for accessing/processing CorePeelers information is risky and should be avoided wherever possible. This restriction applies regardless of where the devices are used. CorePeelers does not require Contributors to conduct CorePeelers business on non-CorePeelers managed devices. If access or processing of CorePeelers information outside the regular office environment is required, the organization will normally provide and manage a compliant desktop/laptop computer for the Contributor to use. If this is not possible and management requires it, Contributors may use their personally owned devices, subject to this policy.

      The Company will ensure that Contributors are aware of the following practices. These practices apply to any of the following personally owned devices or to those CorePeelers owned devices in the possession of Contributors: personal computers (e.g. desktop/laptop), personal digital assistants (PDAs), including Palm and related handheld computers, mobile phones, and personal storage devices (i.e. tape storage devices, CD burners etc).

      1.       Contributors who transmit or store CorePeelers information that is classified as Restricted, Confidential, or Internal on a personal computer (Personally Owned Systems or Devices) must adhere to the following practices:

      a)       Restricted[1] information (e.g. passwords) must never be stored on a non-CorePeelers owned device.

      b)       No Restricted, Confidential or Internal information should be transmitted over a wireless connection.

      c)         Any Confidential[2] CorePeelers information stored on personal computers or electronic media (hard drives, pen drives etc.) must be stored in a manner that reliably restricts access by unauthorized individuals. The information must be encrypted using IT Department approved algorithms. Until such time cell phones, etc. can support IT Department’s approved encryption, these devices will not be used to store confidential information. If a Contributor purchases a software license for an encryption product, then he or she must install the software.

      d)       All personal computers, not managed by CorePeelers, must have IT Department’s approved anti-virus software installed and regularly updated.

      e)       In addition, all personal computers that connect directly to the Internet using an “always on” connection (e.g. DSL or Broadband modems) must have IT Department’s approved firewall software installed and maintained at the most current version.

      f)        Anti-virus and Firewall software installed on the Contributor’s personal computer is the responsibility of the Contributor.

      g)       Restricted and confidential information that is transmitted over public networks must be encrypted at all times using IT Department’s algorithms and key lengths such as SSL, VPN, or PGP. Access to the CorePeelers network is only allowed through approved security channels. CorePeelers supplies the VPN client at no cost. The Contributor must also install the software. CorePeelers will not be liable for any damage possibly caused by the encryption software to the Contributor’s system(s).

      h)       Any Contributor who maintains a personal website or home page on the Internet must ensure that no CorePeelers information is stored or accessible on the site or server at any time. 

       

      2.       Contributors who, with authorization, are permitted by their management to use personal digital assistants (PDAs) must adhere to the following practices and guidelines.

      a)       Each Contributor or contractor must follow the position taken by his or her Director concerning the use and support of PDAs by the business department. All other approved CorePeelers policies must also be adhered to including, but not limited to:

      i)         Obtaining written approval by filling out the PDA Connectivity Authorization Form and having it signed by the Contributor’s Senior Manager or Director.

      ii)      Filing a copy of the authorization with the Contributor or contractor’s manager.

      iii) Adhering strictly to CorePeelers software licensing policies.

      b)       The current technology used for most PDA passwords and authentication is inherently weak and must not be relied upon as a trustworthy means of denying access to the device.

      c)       No Restricted (e.g. passwords) or Confidential CorePeelers information will be stored on any personally owned device (Personal Computers) at any time, except as noted above in 1(c).

      d)    These devices are rapidly evolving and change capabilities frequently. The fundamental requirement of all these devices will be that they will not pose a threat to the integrity of the corporate network-computing infrastructure. Any combination of hardware and or software that creates an unmanageable access point will be denied.

       

      3.        Contributors are prohibited from using WWDS or VPN to obtain CorePeelers information (Restricted, Confidential or Internal) via publicly available personal computer systems (such as those found in hotels or convention centers.)

       

      4.       Contributors will not bring personally owned devices or systems such as laptop/desktop PCs, data storage devices to their work place.

       

      5.       Any CorePeelers Contributor who willfully or knowingly violates any of the points described in this policy may be subject to a disciplinary action, including termination, dismissal and/or criminal prosecution.

    • "CODE" of Business Conduct and Ethics 
    •  

      Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

      Introduction

      This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) has been adopted by the Board of CorePeelers and summarizes the standards that must guide the actions of Contributors (“the Employee”) of CorePeelers (the “Company”).

      Although they cover a wide range of business practices and procedures, these standards cannot and do not cover every issue that may arise, or every situation in which ethical decisions must be made, but rather set forth key guiding principles that represent Company policies and establish conditions for employment at the Company.

      We must strive to foster a culture of honesty and accountability. Our commitment to the highest level of ethical conduct should be reflected in all of the Company’s business activities, including, but not limited to, relationships with Contributors, customers, suppliers, competitors, the government and the public. All of our Contributors, officers and directors must conduct themselves according to the language and spirit of this Code and seek to avoid even the appearance of improper behaviour. Even well- intentioned actions that violate the law or this Code may result in negative consequences for the Company and for the individuals involved.

      One of our Company’s most valuable assets is our reputation for integrity, professionalism and fairness. We should all recognize that our actions are the foundation of our reputation and adhering to this Code and applicable law is imperative.

      Conflicts of Interest

      Our Contributors have an obligation to conduct themselves in an honest and ethical manner and to act in the best interest of the Company. Every Contributor should endeavour to avoid situations that present a potential or actual conflict between his or her interest and the interest of the Company.

      A “conflict of interest” occurs when a person’s private interest interferes in any way, or even appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates. A conflict of interest may arise when a Contributor takes an action or has an interest that may make it difficult for him or her to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. A conflict of interest may also arise when a Contributor (or a member of his or her family) receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the Company.

       

      Although it is not possible to describe every situation in which a conflict of interest may arise, the following are examples of situations that may constitute a conflict of interest:

      § Working, in any capacity, for a competitor, customer or supplier while associated with the Company. § Accepting gifts of more than modest value or receiving personal discounts (if such discounts are not generally offered to the public) or other benefits from a competitor, customer or supplier, as a result of the individual’s position with the Company. Such gifts may also constitute a violation of the Company’s Anti-Corruption and Bribery Policy.

      § Competing with the Company for the purchase or sale of property, products, services or other interests.

      § Having an interest in a transaction involving the Company, a competitor, customer or supplier (other than as a Contributor of the Company and not including routine investments in publicly traded companies).

      § Receiving a loan or guarantee of an obligation as a result of an individual’s position with the Company.

      § Directing business to a supplier owned or managed by, or which employs, a relative or friend.

      Situations involving a conflict of interest may not always be obvious or easy to resolve. You should report actions that may involve a conflict of interest to the General Counsel.

      In order to avoid conflicts of interests, Contributors must disclose to the General Counsel any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict, the General Counsel shall notify the Company's Board of Directors of any such disclosure. Conflicts of interests involving the General Counsel or members of the Board of Directors shall be disclosed to the disinterested members of the Board of Directors or by writing to hr@corepeelers.com

      In the event that an actual or apparent conflict of interest arises between the personal and professional relationship or activities of a Contributor, he or she is required to handle such conflict of interest in an ethical manner and in accordance with the provisions of this Code.

      Compliance with Laws, Rules and Regulations

      We are strongly committed to conducting our business affairs with honesty and integrity and in full compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. No Contributor of the Company shall commit an illegal or unethical act, or instruct others to do so, for any reason.

       

      Compliance with This Code and Reporting of Any Illegal or Unethical Behaviour

      All Contributors are expected to comply with all of the provisions of this Code. The Code will be strictly enforced and violations will be dealt with immediately, including by subjecting persons who violate its provisions to corrective and/or disciplinary action, such as dismissal from service or removal from office. Violations of the Code that involve illegal behaviour will be reported to the appropriate authorities.

      Situations which may involve a violation of ethics, laws, rules, regulations or this Code may not always be clear and may require the exercise of judgment or the making of difficult decisions. Contributors should promptly report any concerns about a violation of ethics, laws, rules, regulations or this Code to their Reporting Contributors or the General Counsel or, in the case of accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

      Any concerns about a violation of ethics, laws, rules, regulations or this Code by any senior executive  should be reported promptly to the General Counsel, who shall notify the Board of Directors of any violation. Any such concerns involving the General Counsel should be reported to the Board of Directors. Reporting of such violations may also be done anonymously in writing to the Board of Directors. An anonymous report should provide enough information about the incident or situation to allow the Company to investigate properly. If concerns or complaints require confidentiality, including keeping an identity anonymous, the Company will endeavour to protect this confidentiality, subject to applicable law, regulation or legal proceedings.

      The Company encourages all Contributors to report any suspected violations of this Code promptly and intends to thoroughly investigate any good faith reports of violations of this Code. The Company will not tolerate any kind of retaliation for reports or complaints regarding misconduct that were made in good faith. Open communication of issues and concerns by all Contributors without fear of retribution or retaliation is vital to the successful implementation of this Code. All Contributors are required to cooperate in any internal investigations of misconduct and unethical behaviour.

      The Company recognizes the need for this Code to be applied equally to everyone it covers. The General Counsel of the Company will have primary authority and responsibility for the enforcement of this Code, subject to the supervision of the Board of Directors, or, in the case of accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and the Company will devote the necessary resources to enable the General Counsel to establish such procedures as may be reasonably necessary to create a culture of accountability and facilitate compliance with this Code. Questions concerning this Code should be directed to the General Counsel.

      The provisions of this section are qualified in their entirety by reference to the following section.

       

      Reporting Violations to a Governmental Agency

      Contributors have the right under law to certain protections for cooperating with or reporting legal violations to governmental agencies or entities and self-regulatory organizations. As such, nothing in this Code is intended to prohibit any Contributor from disclosing or reporting violations to, or from cooperating with, a governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization, and Contributors may do so without notifying the Company. The Company may not retaliate against a Contributor for any of these activities, and nothing in this Code or otherwise requires a Contributor to waive any monetary award or other payment that he or she might become entitled to from a governmental agency or entity, or self-regulatory organization.

      All Contributors of the Company have the right to:

      § Report possible violations of state or federal law or regulation that have occurred, are occurring, or are about to occur to any governmental agency or entity, or self-regulatory organization;

      § Cooperate voluntarily with, or respond to any inquiry from, or provide testimony before any self-regulatory organization or any other federal, state or local regulatory or law enforcement authority;

      § Make reports or disclosures to law enforcement or a regulatory authority without prior notice to, or authorization from, the Company; and

      § Respond truthfully to a valid subpoena.

      All Contributors have the right to not be retaliated against for reporting, either internally to the Company or to any governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization, information which the Contributor reasonably believe relates to a possible violation of law. Retaliatory conduct includes discharge, demotion, suspension, threats, harassment, and any other manner of discrimination in the terms and conditions of employment because of any lawful act the Contributor may have performed. It is unlawful for the company to retaliate against a Contributor for reporting possible misconduct either internally or to any governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization.

      The Company cannot require a Contributor to withdraw reports or filings alleging possible violations of federal, state or local law or regulation, and the Company may not offer the Contributors any kind of inducement, including payment, to do so.

      A Contributor’s rights and remedies as a whistle-blower protected under applicable whistle-blower laws, including a monetary award, if any, may not be waived by any agreement, policy form, or condition of employment, including by a pre-dispute arbitration agreement.

      Even if an Contributor has participated in a possible violation of law, the Contributor may be eligible to participate in the confidentiality and retaliation protections afforded under applicable whistle-blower laws, and the Contributor may also be eligible to receive an award under such laws.

      Unauthorized use, disclosure or distribution of proprietary information violates Company policy and could be illegal. Such use, disclosure or distribution could result in negative consequences for both the Company and the individuals involved, including potential legal and disciplinary actions. We respect the proprietary rights of other companies and their proprietary information and require our Contributors to observe such rights.

      Your obligation to protect the Company’s proprietary and confidential information continues even after you leave the Company for any reason, and you must return all proprietary information in your possession upon leaving the Company.
