DECHEMA Ausstellungs-GmbH takes all necessary measures to protect confidential information and personal data. Trustful cooperation is only possible if confidential information enjoys maximum protection. Our employees are obliged to handle all information with care. This applies to the safekeeping of protocols and other documents against the unauthorised access by third parties as well as maintaining confidentiality. Please note that the use or disclosure of insider information - e.g. in connection with securities transactions - can lead to legal proceedings.

Donations and sponsoring can only be made to charitable bodies whose work is in accordance with DECHEMA's objectives.
Granting and receiving gifts and other gratuities is only accepted in accordance with applicable law. Since our activities significantly depend on the personal encounter between people a sound judgement is required in this context. In cases of doubt a consultation with the superior is recommended. This applies to invitations as well as gifts. This not only serves the internal transparency but protects the employee from unjustified assumptions. In return, the proportionality of invitations to honorary members and cooperation partners must be kept in mind. Particular caution applies to officials who are not permitted to accept gratuities.
Every form of communication, be it a letter, an e-mail or any other channel contributes to the perception and therefore to the image of our company. Appropriate manners and legal regulations (e.g. imprint obligations) are to be considered at any time.
Personal opinions must be clearly identifiable as such and must be treated with caution in the working environment. The central function 'Communication' has to be included in all contacts with media. If useful, we support the use of social media for professional issues and recommend a consultation with the superior where appropriate.
