Information concerning violations of legal obligations or Deutsche Telekom rules and regulations can be reported to Group Compliance Management through the Tell me! whistleblower portal – also anonymously and/or externally.
Compliance with laws and internal policies and principles of conduct is of major importance to Deutsche Telekom because we strongly feel that the key to the company's success is based on integrity, ethics and personal responsibility. We therefore strive to avoid any risk that could compromise our integrity and damage others.
If we are to live up to this responsibility, it is of utmost importance that we are made aware of any compliance related misconduct.
Since 2006, Deutsche Telekom has provided both internal and external persons with the opportunity to report compliance violations via the “TellMe” whistleblower portal – including anonymously and through the whistleblower system of the external provider EQS (formerly BKMS).
The portal can also be used to report human rights or environmental risks, as well as violations of rights along our global supply chain, relating to the activities of our employees within Group companies or those of our suppliers and business partners.
If requested, your data and information are subject to confidentiality to the extent in line with the relevant legal stipulations. All tip-offs will be assessed thoroughly, cases of suspicion will be investigated and sanctions consistently applied if applicable.
Please, help us to continue to be a reliable business partner and a successful service provider to our customers by blowing the whistle on serious violations of the law or infringements of rules and regulations concerning Deutsche Telekom.
