Data ethics means doing the right thing with all company data beyond just following the law. Data ethics focuses on ensuring all company information, including personal data of employees, customers & third parties, is managed by employees in a way that ensures fairness & transparency. Ethical data use protects customers, colleagues & our brand.

At JOE, we are committed to ensuring all employees are aware of relevant privacy laws to ensure that we only utilise data, both personal and non-personal, in an ethically correct manner. It is important that employees only collect or access data that they require to fulfil their job requirements. A copy of our internal GDPR Handbook can be found here, together with other relevant data ethics & privacy principles that all employees should familiarise themselves with:

• Data Subject Request Process
• Data Breach Response Process
• Data Retention Policy
