- We will comply with the laws and regulations of all countries and regions that we are involved with through business activities. If there is any conflict between an internationally recognized human right and a law or regulation of a country, we will seek a way to respect the international principle of human rights to the maximum extent possible.

- We will provide appropriate education and training to ensure that this Policy is effectively executed throughout the Group.
