  • The assets of the Company are to be used solely for the benefit of the Company and only for valid business purposes. The assets of DYNAMARINe are much more than our equipment, inventory, company funds, or office supplies.

    Our trustworthy assets include technologies, concepts, business strategies and plans, financial data, and other information about our business. These assets may not be improperly used to provide personal gain for members of personnel or others. Members of personnel may not transfer any of the assets to other people, except in the ordinary course of business.

  • As part of his/her job, a member of personnel may have access to confidential information about DYNAMARINe, its customers, suppliers and competitors.

    Until such material information has been made public, this information is not to be disclosed to co-workers who do not have a business need-to-know, nor to external physical or business entities for any reason except in accordance with established Company procedures, which may include confidentiality agreements when appropriate.

    Members of personnel may not use confidential information obtained on the job for personal financial gain through Company’s commercial activities or other personal financial transactions. "Confidential information" includes information or data on products, business strategies, information related to Principals, processes, systems, procedures, etc., as well as all financial data.

  • Members of personnel are expected to avoid any outside financial activity that might influence their work, company decisions or actions.

    Members of personnel are expected also to avoid outside employment or activities that materially decreases the performance, impartiality, judgment, effectiveness, or productivity expected from everyone on his or her job.

    Specifically,, they strictly avoid situations in which private interests’ conflict or interfere with their loyalty to the Company’s and her clients’ interests. Conflicts can arise from situations that may result in a direct benefit or from situations that have a negative impact on the Company. Examples of conflict of interest include the following situations:

    1. Using the position in the Company to hire family members or friends, including consultants;
    2. Making significant use of Company time or resources for private personal interests such as surfing the net or doing private mailings;
    3. Making significant use of Company time and resources for commercial activities not related directly to the Company;
    4. Using position in the Company to influence purchasing decisions for own interests.

    These situations are provided as illustrations, so this list is not complete.

  • DYNAMARINe obtains and keeps its business because of the quality and value of our services, and the respect and confidence we instil in our customers. Conducting business with suppliers and customers can pose ethical or even legal problems, especially in the sector the Company is involved in, where local laws and practices may be different from those with which we are familiar.

    The following guidelines are intended to help all members of personnel to make the "right" decision in potentially conflicting situations:

    1. Members of personnel may not accept neither offer gifts or money under any circumstances from and/or to suppliers or customers.
    2. Purchases or sales of goods and services must not lead to members of personnel or their families receiving personal rewards.
    3. Rewards may take many forms and are not limited to direct cash payments.

    In general, if a member of personnel stands to gain personally through the transaction, this is prohibited. Such practices are not only outside of the current code of ethics, but in many cases may be illegal. Payments or offers of benefit of any kind other than those included in standard marketing policies of the Company may not be made to customers or prospective customers as an inducement for them to buy our services.

    The use of DYNAMARINe's funds or assets for any purpose, outside the law or this Code, is strictly prohibited. Any payment which is improper when made by a member of personnel is likewise improper if made by another third party on behalf of DYNAMARINe, where DYNAMARINe knows or has reason to know that the payment to a third party is for any purpose other than that disclosed on the payment documentation.

    It is accepted as a reasonable business practice, members of personnel to offer or accept entertainment to or from customers, principals, suppliers in the course of normal business communication. However, offering or accepting entertainment, that is not a reasonable adjunct to a business relationship, but is primarily intended to gain favour or influence, should be avoided.

    Agreements with agents, sales representatives, or consultants must be in writing in Company’s standard format and must clearly and accurately set forth the services to be performed, the basis for earning the commission or fee involved, and the applicable rate or fee. These agreements should be completely transparent to the company.

    Any such payments must be reasonable in amount, not excessive in light of the practice in the trade, and commensurate with the value of the services rendered. In some countries, local laws may prohibit the use of agents or limit the rate of commissions or fees.

  • Communications with Competitors

    It is not illegal and may be appropriate for representatives of DYNAMARINe and its competitors to meet and talk during business events, conventions, fairs etc. In such conversations, comment on such topics as pricing, sales levels, marketing methods, inventories, business goals, non-public market studies, and any proprietary or confidential information shall be avoided. Discussions regarding customers must be limited to the exchange of credit information.

    About Competitors

    As a business that competes in the marketplace, DYNAMARINe may seek economic knowledge about its competitors. However, we will not engage in illegal or improper acts to acquire a competitor's trade secrets, customer lists, and information about company facilities, technical developments or operations. In addition, DYNAMARINe or any of her representatives, will not hire a competitor's employees for the purpose of obtaining confidential information, or urge competitors' personnel, customers, or suppliers to disclose confidential information, nor shall seek such information from competitors' employees subsequently hired by DYNAMARINe.

    DYNAMARINe is committed in maintaining a positive constructive working environment where all members of personnel may pursue personal career satisfaction. Discrimination of any kind is not tolerated.

    Implementation

    This Business Ethics Policy outlines the way we want to treat others, as well as the way we want to be treated. All personnel are fully aware of this policy and are expected to adhere to it.

    Everyone is encouraged to consult with managers, as appropriate, prior to taking any action whenever the proper course of conduct is in doubt. Any failure to adhere to this policy may result in action, up to and including termination of employment.

    Such violations or any other inappropriate activity in the workplace may be reported to any member of management. The management of the Company shall always take appropriate action. Failure to report any violations of this policy, failure to cooperate with any investigation of any alleged violation of this policy or the submission of information that is known to be false in response to an investigation of any alleged violation of this policy is, in itself, a violation of this policy. Reprisal action against any member of personnel who in good faith reports suspected violation of this policy is not permitted, and any such reprisal actions will be deemed a violation of this policy.
