Code of Ethics

First and foremost, with this Code we strive to foster strong culture of ethics and responsibility within the whole organisation. It is based on Vivansa core values and principles and is an important resource for making the right decisions in case of doubt.

The everyday work of Vivansa is supported by a framework of values, expectations and requirements, which guides us in the relations with our partners, clients, colleagues and the society. These rules affect the way we do business, communicate with each other and interact with the whole ecosystem. They guide us in building trust and long-lasting partnerships, as well as in working toward sustainable development.

The following Code of Ethics applies to all aspects of our work and activities, as well as to all of us. When we mention the words “we”, “us” or “our” we are referring to all of us at Vivansa – employees, managers, partners and entities, which together form the Vivansa network. Therefore, we expect each of us to be familiar with the Code and to follow it when acting on the behalf of the company.

Our purpose is to deliver quality services and meaningful innovations for development of the eCustoms sector, which leads to improved public services, smoother customs operations and strengthened security. Delivering on that purpose would be impossible without following a set of simple, still universal values, such as: respect, responsibility, loyalty, trust, passion for innovations and delivering quality results. This Code sustains our desire and ability to behave in a way, which is consistent with our values. It also represents a confirmed set of expectations for our conduct, as follows.

I, the undersigned, Vivien G. R. Monti, CEO of Vivansa, undertake on my honour to ensure that this code of ethics is respected within the company and in the relationship with our clients.

Innovations are the driving force, which brings us to life. They are part of our DNA and we embed them into the fibers of our culture, from the core to the periphery. Meaningful innovations provide us with the sense of joy and content, as well as with the opportunity to make the world a better place.

At Vivansa we aim at minimizing the negative impact of our work by promoting some good practices toward sustainable working (and living).
