Partner Code of Conduct

Last updated October 26, 2023


At Tremor International, Ltd. (“Tremor”), we expect the highest standards of ethical business conduct from our officers, employees, and directors and set forth these expectations in our Code of Ethics and Conduct (“CEC”). We also expect our partners, suppliers, distributors, vendors, business associates, and third-party representatives (“Partners”) to acknowledge, agree, and abide by our CEC. This Partner Code of Conduct (“Code”) sets forth Tremor’s expectation that its Partners uphold the highest standards of ethics and comply with all applicable laws and regulations. These expectations should complement each Partner’s own policies, applicable legal requirements, and the terms of any agreements that a Partner may have with Tremor.

Failure to comply with this Code could result in termination of the business relationship.

I. Compliance with Applicable Governmental Laws, Rules, and Regulations

Tremor expects its Partners to fully comply with the laws, rules and regulations of the countries in which they operate, particularly those laws related to Partners’ performance of duties for Tremor.

II. Anti-Corruption Compliance & Business Expenses

Tremor prohibits bribes, kickbacks, or other improper or illegal payments of anything of value from being directly or indirectly offered, given, authorized, promised, solicited, or accepted in any way related to Tremor, whether it involves public officials (including officers or employees of governments or state-owned entities) or private parties.

Tremor prohibits bribery to influence a public official, to obtain or retain business from any party, or to secure an unfair business advantage.

Tremor also prohibits Partners from making facilitation payments, or small, unofficial payments to public officials to expedite routine, non-discretionary government decisions (even if permissible under local law).

All business expenses provided by Partners related to Tremor’s business – including gifts (whether money or any other thing of value), hospitality, entertainment, events, travel, or accommodation – must comply with any agreements with Tremor; have a legitimate business purpose; be reasonable and modest in value and frequency; comply with local law; and be accurately recorded.

IV. Conflicts of Interest & Corporate Opportunities
