Bribery is defined as the offering, promising, giving, receiving, or soliciting of anything of value, whether monetary or non-monetary, to improperly influence a business decision or gain an unfair advantage. All employees and representatives must adhere to our separate Anti-Bribery Policy, which outlines strict guidelines for interactions with public officials, private individuals, clients, suppliers, and any other party. No gifts, hospitality, or favors should be given or received with the intent of influencing business decisions or securing preferential treatment.

We compete on the basis of the quality of our products, services, and innovation, not through anti-competitive practices. Employees and representatives must refrain from engaging in any anti-competitive behaviour, such as price-fixing, bid-rigging, market allocation, or any other practice that unfairly limits competition or harms consumers. We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our employees and representatives to act with integrity regarding the use of third-party intellectual property. Unauthorized use or distribution of copyrighted materials, trademarks, or patents is strictly prohibited.
Digital Bookings values open communication and encourages employees and representatives to raise concerns, ask questions, and seek guidance when facing ethical dilemmas or potential conflicts of interest. If an employee or representative becomes aware of any potential violation of this Code of Conduct/Ethics Policy, they are expected to report it through our established channels without fear of retaliation. Reports will be treated with confidentiality, and we will take appropriate measures to investigate and address any concerns promptly.
Digital Bookings provides various resources, including technology, equipment, and intellectual property, to support the efficient functioning of our business operations. All employees and representatives are responsible for using these resources responsibly and exclusively for legitimate business purposes. Misuse of company resources, including unauthorized access to systems, intellectual property theft, or personal use of company assets, is strictly prohibited. Digital Bookings reserves the right to monitor the use of company resources to ensure compliance with this policy.

A designated reporting channel, such as a hotline or email system, is available for individuals to report violations of this policy or any unethical conduct. Any form of retaliation against those who report concerns in good faith is strictly prohibited, and any attempts to intimidate or retaliate against whistleblowers will be treated as a violation of this Code of Conduct.
