DNPA Code of Ethics

Purpose

At ReviewDear, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our operations. This policy ensures that all team members act with integrity, comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and refrain from engaging in any conduct driven by personal interest.

Gifts, Favors, and Payments (Provided)

Any gifts, favors, or payments offered by ReviewDear must adhere to standard business practices, be of nominal value, comply with legal requirements, and not bring disrepute to the company if publicly disclosed.
It is strictly against company policy to make payments, commissions, or any form of compensation to customer affiliates without a formal, written agreement.

Gifts, Favors, Entertainment, and Payments (Received)

Team members must not solicit or accept gifts, favors, entertainment, or payments that lack a legitimate business purpose—particularly from individuals or entities currently doing or seeking business with ReviewDear.
Acceptable exceptions include customary business courtesies and items of minimal value. However, strict caution must be exercised, especially regarding gifts from vendors or suppliers.

Conflicts of Interest

Employees must avoid situations where their personal interests may conflict with those of ReviewDear and must disclose any such situations promptly to their supervisor.
This includes personal investments in, or positions held with, companies that either compete with or conduct business with ReviewDear, or any other engagement that may compromise the organization’s interests.

Confidential Information

The unauthorized sharing or use of ReviewDear’s confidential information is strictly prohibited.
Breaches of confidentiality will result in disciplinary measures, which may include termination of employment.

Compliance

Any violation of this policy will lead to appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
Employees are expected to report any misconduct or policy violations they become aware of, without fear of retaliation.
