BigID Statement on Modern Slavery

BigID Inc., inclusive of its group companies (“BigID”), is a leader in data security, privacy, compliance, and governance: enabling organizations to proactively discover, manage, protect, and get more value from their data in a single platform for data visibility and control.

BigID Commitment:

BigID believes it’s everyone’s responsibility to act with integrity and respect for the rights of every human being. BigID is committed to maintaining the highest moral, ethical, and legal standards of conduct and corporate responsibility.

Modern slavery encompasses slavery, servitude, human trafficking and forced labor. BigID has a zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, or other forced or child labor. BigID unequivocally supports the elimination of human trafficking, modern slavery, and any other forms of forced or child labor and strives to comply with the global laws and regulations governing modern slavery, human trafficking, or forced labor.

BigID has published this statement against modern slavery, human trafficking, and other forced or child labor to emphasize its commitment to anti-slavery as one of its core corporate values and to detail its undertaking to ensure that modern slavery, human trafficking, child labor, or any form of forced or compulsory labor do not inhabit any part of BigID’s business operations.

Assessment of Risk

BigID employs a technology-centric, skilled labor force and all personnel are full-consenting, voluntary, employees or independent contractors who receive competitive compensation and benefits. BigID attains the majority of its workers through direct recruiting and only selectively uses recruitment firms for highly competitive skilled-roles.

As a software company, BigID does not manufacture, produce, or distribute hardware, physical goods or commodities. BigID’s supply chain consists of software, technical support services, professional services, and sales agents and marketing services.

The nature of BigID’s business makes encountering slavery, unlawful child labor, or human trafficking in its operations unlikely. Nevertheless, BigID remains vigilant. BigID’s business operations do not rely on low-wage labor or vulnerable populations such as children or immigrants. Similarly, BigID’s business partners, customers, and subcontractors are generally well-established persons and entities that do not rely on vulnerable populations.
