If you have an ethics or compliance question or an inquiry regarding a company policy, you can ask anonymously and confidentially.

Convercent is an organization dedicated to building best in class ethics and compliance solutions. It allows employees to share concerns or incidents, while easily maintaining anonymity, fostering an atmosphere where every voice is heard.
Your incident report is NOT automatically sent to law enforcement. Only if your organization feels law enforcement should receive a copy, or if the law requires it, will your incident report be submitted to the police.
In all instances, every effort will be made to ensure that information relating to a reported incident is kept confidential and communicated on a need-to-know basis only. Below are the different levels of anonymity you may select:
-
Remain completely anonymous: You will not reveal your name or contact information. Your identity is completely protected on the incident report.
-
Remain anonymous toward your organization: You are comfortable revealing your name and contact information to Convercent, but not to your organization. Convercent may contact you confidentially to gather additional information about the report yet will not reveal your identity at any time to your organization.
-
Share my name and information: You do not care about anonymity. You choose to reveal your name and identity to both your organization and to Convercent.
