Our Policies and Due Diligence on Slavery and Human Trafficking:

This section provides information for California residents as per the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), that obliges us to provide residents of California specific information regarding how we manage their personal information, online or offline. However, this section does not address or apply to our management of publicly available information which is made legally available by state or federal governments or other personal information that is subject to an exemption under the CCPA.

REQUEST TO KNOW AND REQUEST TO DELETE PAGE:

We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains or in any part of our business. As a software and services company, we do not have a manufacturing base or supply chain for tangible goods. Accordingly, we believe there is a very low likelihood of slavery and/or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, our company is committed to promoting and protecting human rights wherever we do business.

We expect our suppliers and other business partners to be committed to ethical behavior, to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and to take action to promote the eradication of human trafficking and slavery. We will continue to work with our suppliers and refine our own requirements and processes to reinforce our commitment to human rights and a culture of ethical behavior, integrity and respect.

This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our Company’s slavery and human trafficking statement for the financial year ending June 30, 2021.
