Corporate Social Responsibility Policy of Zappix, Inc.
Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) company policy refers to our responsibility toward our community and environment. Our company’s existence is not isolated. We are part of a bigger system of people, values, other organizations, and nature. The social responsibility of a business is to give back to the world just as it gives to us. Corporate social responsibility is vitally important to who we are as a company. Our policies ensure that we rigorously adhere to the highest standards in ethical behavior, environmental sustainability, data security and more.
Our company’s social responsibility falls under two categories: compliance and proactiveness. Compliance refers to our company’s commitment to legality and willingness to observe community values. Proactiveness is every initiative to promote human rights, help communities and protect our natural environment. We also acknowledge that a key piece of social responsibility is a commitment to growth and learning, working to continuously improve our policies, culture, and mindset for the better.
