Ethical code
Board of Directors commitment
Excellence in service, commitment to results, environment responsible managing, interest in people, safety and health, social commitment and integrity, and transparency, are the commitments of Corporate responsibility policy of FACEPHI BIOMETRÍA S.A.
The supervision of the company’s performance in this area falls, ultimately, on the Board of Directors, as established in the recommendations of the Code of Ethics and the Regulations of the Board. The Board is responsible for the approval of Facephi’s Corporate Responsibility Policy, receiving, at least annually, information on the implementation and general monitoring of said policy.
Likewise, the Board of Directors oversees the effective integration of Corporate responsibility in the company’s strategy and in its daily management, thus achieving a solid corporate responsibility culture.
The implementation of a Criminal Risk Prevention Plan is the result of carrying out that Board of Directors responsibility, in its eagerness to ensure the proper implementation and monitoring of the commitments assumed.
Code of Ethics
The new wording has been approved by the Board of Directors (September 26th, 2022). This Code of Ethics is based on the definition of the Mission, Values and Principles of Facephi. It constitues a guide to ensure the best behaviour in the professional performance of its employees, in accordance with the laws of each of the countries where Facephi’s activities are carried out and respecting the values of their respective cultures.
