Policy Statements

1. Prohibition Against Bribery and Corruption
   All forms of bribery and corruption, whether direct or indirect, are strictly prohibited. Employees and representatives of SUBC IPTV UK must not engage in or facilitate any form of bribery, whether it involves cash, gifts, services, or any other form of benefit or incentive intended to influence an outcome improperly.

2. Gifts and Hospitality
   While we recognize that modest gifts and hospitality may be appropriate in certain contexts, it is essential that they remain within reasonable limits. Lavish or excessive gifts, entertainment, or benefits are strictly forbidden, as they may be perceived as attempts to influence a decision or business relationship. All gifts and hospitality expenses must be documented, justified, and approved by senior management to ensure they comply with our standards of transparency.

3. Third-Party Relationships
   SUBC IPTV UK expects its suppliers, agents, consultants, and other third parties to share our commitment to anti-bribery and anti-corruption principles. Any third party acting on our behalf or representing our interests must agree to abide by this policy or adhere to similar standards within their own policies. Third-party relationships are regularly reviewed, and due diligence is conducted to ensure that all associated parties are committed to ethical practices.

4. Facilitation Payments
   Facilitation payments, also known as « grease payments, » are unofficial, small payments made to expedite or secure the performance of a routine government action. Such payments are strictly prohibited, regardless of the amount, as they undermine fair practices and legal regulations.

5. Political Contributions
   Contributions to political parties, causes, or individuals, whether in cash or in-kind, are prohibited when they aim to gain a commercial advantage or could be construed as attempts to influence decisions improperly. Any political contributions made on behalf of SUBC IPTV UK must have prior written approval from senior management and comply with relevant laws.

6. Charitable Donations and Sponsorships
