As a mission-driven and certified B-Corp company, we are particularly attentive to the following key values and principles:

• the prevention of and combat against any form of harassment, bullying, discrimination, and retaliatory practices;
• the promotion of equal opportunities, diversity, equity, inclusion, and employability;
• the freedom of speech, of association, and the right to collective bargaining; and
• the elimination of any form of forced labor.

Consequently, all Team members must engage in practices that are consistent with these values and refrain, directly or indirectly, from performing, participating, or executing any act, step, or attempt that may be qualified as a breach of these commitments.

Team members should immediately report the incident to the People and Legal teams and/or submit a report according to our Whistleblowing Policy if they believe they have been harassed or bullied by anyone or if they have witnessed such behavior at HooLearn.

HooLearn expects its Team Members to foster relationships based on HooLearn loyalty, trust, and integrity and help others in their development.

We expect Team Members to conduct themselves appropriately while at work, even remotely, and while representing HooLearn at work-related events. We expect the same in any of their communications on social media about and/or on behalf of HooLearn.

In particular, we expect each Team Member to behave in a manner that promotes a professional and productive work environment and to consistently treat others with respect, openness, inclusion, fairness, and courtesy.

At HooLearn, we are fully committed to safeguarding the health, safety, and well-being of all our Team and Community Members, and maintaining a welcoming and violence-free workplace.

HooLearn is also committed to maintaining a workplace free from unlawful drug use and the abuse of drugs and alcohol. The unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of a controlled substance is prohibited in the workplace. This prohibition extends to Company-sponsored events, whether on Company property or elsewhere.

Team Members must actively participate in their own health and safety protection by complying with the health and safety rules in force at their workplace, even remotely, and by participating in the various training courses organized on the topic.

We will thoroughly investigate allegations of threatened or actual breach of health and safety rules and take appropriate corrective actions in a timely manner in case of any offense.

As a Bcorp and mission-driven company, we are committed to environmental sustainability, responsible purchasing, and care for our planet and environment. As such, our supplier charter ensures our commitment to the best environmental and social standards.

HooLearn intends to reduce its environmental impact, managing waste, decreasing our carbon footprint on all emissions scopes, and acting to preserve natural resources and healthy ecosystems.

We expect all Team Members, regardless of their role, to contribute to our efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle the energy and natural resources required to operate our business and to integrate sustainability into HooLearn's business strategies and processes on a daily basis.

Each Team Member is encouraged to deal fairly and refrain from acting in any way that could damage our reputation with our partners, students, suppliers, service providers, competitors, government officials, and employees.

Each Team Member should not take advantage through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair-dealing practice.

Any situation where competing loyalties could cause a Team Member to pursue something that would benefit themselves, their relatives, friends, partners, companions, or family instead of our Mission might be qualified as a conflict of interest. The list below covers different situations of “conflict of interest” that HooLearn prohibits (this list is non-exhaustive):

• Team Members have a duty to the Company to advance its legitimate interests to the best of their ability: unless otherwise agreed with HooLearn, they may not take business opportunities for themselves (or direct such opportunities to a third party) that are properly within the scope of the Company's activities or that they discover through the use of the Company's property, information or position.
• Team Members shall refrain from engaging in private business or professional activities that could compromise their ability to perform their work for HooLearn objectively.
• A conflict of interest can also arise in case of employment of relatives and close associates; if a Team Member's relatives or close associates have financial or employment connections with HooLearn, competitors, suppliers, or customers, the concerned Team Member must disclose this fact to the People and Legal teams.
• Membership on the boards of customers, suppliers, partners, or competitors of the Company raises potential conflict of interest concerns. If a Team Member is asked to become a member of a board of one of these companies or if they already are a board member of these companies, they must disclose it to the Legal Department and seek prior approval if they have not accepted yet. Same principles apply in case of consultancy services provided to the above stakeholders.

In short, Team members should avoid any situations that may put them in a conflict of interest, and at least disclose any conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest situation to the Legal Team.

If Team Members have any doubt whether a situation could result in a conflict of interest, please contact the People team or the Legal team for help reviewing this situation.

HooLearn is committed to incurring justified expenses and to giving a true financial picture of its business. HooLearn's money should be spent as carefully as one would manage their own money. Each Team Member bears the responsibility of prudently managing these funds, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of financial records, and upholding internal control protocols.

HooLearn is a non-political organization. Therefore, the Company and each Team Member are prohibited from making contributions to political candidates or political parties on the Company's behalf.

Maintaining complete and accurate records remains an essential task, and it is critical for our business operations, legal duties, and the preparation of our financial statements.

Each Team Member bears personal responsibility for the authenticity of records, reports, and information under their review, whether intended for internal or external use.

Team Members are required to comply with internal accounting and record-keeping policies. Any form of record falsification, including the submission of fraudulent or inaccurate expense reimbursement, claims, or time records, is strictly prohibited.

Certain information may be considered as competitive advantage for HooLearn. Our responsibility is to keep it confidential and protected.

This includes using HooLearn's information only for Company purposes and not disclosing it to anyone outside of HooLearn. Even within the Company, only those individuals who truly need to know the information to conduct their business should have access to confidential information.

Confidential information includes but it is not limited to HooLearn's intellectual property, data, financials, employees, business strategy, and corporate information. Team members have to maintain confidentiality and the security of this information. They should protect their devices when in places where they could be lost or stolen, they mustn't share passwords or access codes, nor allow others to use their accounts or devices.

HooLearn's intellectual property (trademarks, logos, copyrights, and trade secrets) is one of its main assets. Therefore, we are all responsible for ensuring that HooLearn's intellectual property is well protected.

Any use of our trademarks and logos must be cleared in advance by our Legal Department and Team Members must report any suspected misuse of trademarks, logos, or other Company intellectual property.

Team Members must ensure that a contract with appropriate clauses to protect HooLearn's intellectual property rights and ensure freedom to use results when undertaking collaborative work with third parties (image, music, trademark…) is in place.

As HooLearn cares about intellectual property, it does not tolerate any inappropriate use of others' intellectual property. It may expose HooLearn and the concerned Team Member to criminal and civil fines and penalties.

HooLearn provides computer hardware, software, and communications and network systems exclusively for business purposes. Each Team Member is responsible for ensuring that equipment and network are used for that purpose only.

We prohibit the use of our systems or equipment for any illegal, harassing, bullying, offensive, or sexually explicit activities, as well as any violations of other Company policies, standards, or guidelines. Additionally, any other uses that could have a negative impact on HooLearn are also prohibited.

In case of any doubt whether, as a Team Member, you are using equipment, software, and network in a safe way, please contact the Security team right away.

We do not authorize, offer, or make corrupt payments to anyone for any reason.

We do not authorize to offer, promise, or give, directly or indirectly, anything of value, regardless of amount, to induce or influence a government official or commercial party, or to secure an improper advantage in business dealings.
