Whistleblowing – Ensure Transparency and Legal Security

With the EU Whistleblower Protection Directive and corresponding national laws in place, companies must provide secure whistleblowing channels to allow individuals to report misconduct safely. The increasing complexity of compliance requirements and legal obligations poses significant challenges for organizations. We provide expert guidance and tailored solutions to ensure full compliance and seamless implementation.

Independent Ombudsperson Services

At DSN GROUP, we understand the importance of transparency, accountability, and compliance. As an independent ombudsperson, we offer a secure, confidential, and impartial whistleblowing solution. Unlike company-operated reporting channels, our external service enhances trust, encouraging whistleblowers to report internally instead of turning to external authorities.

Key Benefits of an Independent Ombudsperson:

  • Neutral & Impartial Platform – Encourages internal reporting while reducing reputational risks.
  • Trust & Confidentiality – Builds confidence in corporate ethics and compliance.
  • Regulatory Compliance – Ensures adherence to EU whistleblower laws and GDPR requirements.

GDPR-Compliant Whistleblowing Platform

Our secure and fully GDPR-compliant whistleblowing platform is hosted within the EU, ensuring the highest level of data protection and confidentiality. We implement rigorous security measures to safeguard sensitive information and maintain compliance with ISO 27001 and GDPR standards.

How Our Confidential Reporting Channel Works:

  1. Secure Report Submission – Whistleblowers submit reports anonymously or with identification.
  2. Review & Verification – Our experts assess reports for completeness and relevance.
  3. Secure Delivery – Reports are forwarded confidentially to the designated company contact.
  4. Facilitated Communication – We act as intermediaries, ensuring regulatory feedback timelines are met.
  5. Ongoing Compliance Support – We help maintain transparency while protecting whistleblower identities.

Beyond technology, we provide comprehensive legal support for implementing an effective whistleblowing system. Our services include:

  • Customizable Legal Texts & Policies – Ensuring alignment with national and EU regulations.
