This page states Azari Holdings’ public policy position. Applicable law, contracts, regulatory requirements and more specific subsidiary procedures may impose additional or stricter requirements.
Lawful and honest conduct
Third parties should act lawfully and must not offer bribes, falsify records, misrepresent facts or participate in fraud on behalf of an Azari company.
A commercial target or instruction should not be interpreted as permission to use improper means.
Representation and authority
External parties should be clear about whether they are an independent provider, adviser, agent or other counterparty and should not claim authority beyond the agreed scope.
Azari branding should not be used in a way that creates a false impression of employment, ownership, endorsement or partnership.
Confidentiality and information
Information received through the relationship should be used only for the authorised purpose and protected against inappropriate access or disclosure.
Personal data and security-sensitive information require the additional safeguards described by applicable contracts and policies.
Conflicts and benefits
Material conflicts should be disclosed and gifts, hospitality or other benefits must not be used to distort a decision.
Third parties should not secretly receive compensation from another party where that payment conflicts with their duty or the disclosed commercial arrangement.
Subcontracting
A third party remains responsible for managing subcontractors used within its scope and should not conceal material subcontracting where approval or disclosure is required.
Critical subcontractors may be subject to similar diligence and security expectations as the primary provider.
Concerns and consequences
A third party should report material misconduct, security incidents or legal concerns affecting the relationship through the agreed route.
Serious breach can lead to remediation, additional controls, suspension or termination subject to contract and applicable law.
