The ALCAR Group has established an electronic whistleblower system to provide a secure and confidential means for employees and external parties to report potential misconduct or violations of company policies. The key features and principles of the whistleblower system are as follows:

• External Hosting: The whistleblower system is hosted externally and is not connected to the company network.
• Anonymity: No IP addresses or device IDs are logged to ensure the anonymity of whistleblowers.
• Anonymized Reporting: Reports are made anonymously by default, protecting the identity of the whistleblower.
• Encrypted Communication: Reports are encrypted during transmission and storage to ensure the security of the information shared.
• Confidentiality: Strict confidentiality is maintained, even if the whistleblower voluntarily reveals their identity.
• Objective Handling: All reports are handled objectively and with due diligence in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
• Presumption of Innocence: The presumption of innocence applies to reports of misconduct until an investigation or review is completed.
• No False Accusations: The system must not be used for false accusations, and knowingly providing false information is prohibited.

The ALCAR Group's whistleblower system is a vital tool for promoting integrity, ethics, and accountability within the company. It provides a protected framework for reporting potential issues without fear of retaliation. Through these measures, the ALCAR Group contributes to fostering a transparent and responsible corporate culture where every employee can feel secure in upholding ethical standards and reporting violations.
