1. Purpose

This Human Rights Policy sets out the minimum standards and commitments we apply across the Soufiane Boudarraja ecosystem (the "Ecosystem"). It exists to protect dignity, safety, and equal treatment in the way we operate, in the way we select partners and suppliers, and in the way we build products and services that reach customers and communities.

2. Scope

This Policy applies to:

• Our operations as an independent business      and any contractors engaged to deliver work.

• Digital offerings (websites, software,      digital products, training content, media content).

• Print-on-demand (POD) products and      fulfilment partners involved in manufacturing and shipping.

• Technology and data providers used to run      the Ecosystem (hosting, analytics, email delivery, payment processing, and      similar services).

• Any collaborations, partnerships, or      suppliers where we have selection influence.

Where we do not control a third party’s operations, we use this Policy as a selection and escalation standard and we cooperate to address credible concerns. This Policy is intended to align with, and be read alongside, our Terms and Conditions, Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), Acceptable Content Guidelines (POD), Privacy Policy, and Third Party Tools and Data Providers Annex.

3. Standards we align to

We align our approach to widely recognised human rights principles, including:

• The Universal Declaration of Human Rights      (UDHR).

• The International Labour Organization      (ILO) fundamental principles and rights at work.

• The UN Guiding Principles on Business and      Human Rights (UNGPs).

We also aim to operate consistently with applicable German and EU laws relevant to human rights, labour protections, non-discrimination, and responsible sourcing, where such laws apply to our activities and partners.

4. Our commitments

We commit to the following baseline commitments across the Ecosystem:

• Respect: We respect internationally recognised      human rights and avoid contributing to harm.

• Non-discrimination: We do not tolerate discrimination or      dehumanisation, including on the basis of protected characteristics.

• Dignity and safety: We do not tolerate harassment,      intimidation, or violence and we prioritise safe working conditions.

• No exploitation: We do not tolerate forced labour, human      trafficking, child labour, or modern slavery.

• Fair working conditions: We support fair pay, lawful working hours,      and respect for freedom of association where applicable.

• Accountability: We investigate credible concerns and take      reasonable remediation steps within our influence.

5. Prohibited practices

The following practices are prohibited and are grounds for refusing or terminating relationships where feasible:

• Forced labour, bonded labour, prison      labour that is not voluntary and lawful, or any form of modern slavery or      human trafficking.

• Child labour, including work that is      illegal, hazardous, exploitative, or interferes with education.

• Physical abuse, threats, harassment, or      degrading treatment.

• Discrimination in hiring, compensation,      promotion, termination, or access to opportunity on protected grounds.

• Withholding identity documents,      restricting movement, coercion, or intimidation to control workers.

• Unsafe working conditions that create a      high risk of injury, illness, or death.

6. Labour rights and working conditions

Where relevant to our operations or suppliers, we expect:

• Compliance with applicable wage, hour, and      overtime laws, and payment of wages without unlawful deductions.

• Working hours that are lawful and      reasonable, including adequate rest periods.

• Freedom of association and the right to      collective bargaining, consistent with local laws and ILO principles.

• A workplace free from harassment,      violence, and retaliation for raising concerns.

7. Health, safety, and wellbeing

We expect partners and suppliers involved in physical production or logistics (including POD) to maintain reasonable safety systems, including:

• Hazard identification and mitigation      relevant to the work performed.

• Training and protective measures      appropriate to the role.

• Access to reporting channels for safety      concerns without retaliation.

• Reasonable emergency preparedness and      incident response.

8. Equality, inclusion, and respect

The Ecosystem is built on inclusive leadership and equal dignity. We expect behaviour and practices that support respect and inclusion. We do not tolerate hate-based content or conduct in our communities, communications, or products. Where we allow user submissions (for example custom POD text), we moderate using our Acceptable Content Guidelines (POD) and AUP.

9. Privacy and digital rights

Respecting human rights includes respecting privacy and responsible data handling. We aim to process personal data lawfully, minimise data where possible, and implement security measures appropriate to risk. Our Privacy Policy and Data Processing Agreement (where applicable) set the operational details.

10. Partner and supplier expectations

We expect partners, suppliers, and contractors to:

• Operate lawfully and maintain basic worker      protections relevant to their industry and location.

• Maintain policies or controls to prevent      forced labour, child labour, and harassment.

• Provide safe working conditions and      reasonable training where physical work is involved.

• Respect privacy and confidentiality      obligations where they handle data or customer information.

• Cooperate with reasonable requests for      information related to credible human rights concerns.

Where appropriate, we may choose providers that publish responsibility statements, maintain certifications, or provide transparency about labour and production practices. Selection criteria may vary by service category (technology, fulfilment, creative services, consulting delivery).

11. Due diligence and monitoring

As a small independent business, we apply a proportionate approach to due diligence. Our approach may include:

• Supplier and partner screening using      publicly available information and supplier-provided documentation where      available.

• Preference for reputable providers that      maintain compliance programs and grievance channels.

• Contractual requirements where feasible      (for example, incorporating this Policy by reference).

• Targeted reviews where credible risks are      identified (for example, changes in suppliers, new regions, or new product      categories).

12. Reporting concerns and grievances

If you believe a person has been harmed in connection with the Ecosystem or a partner involved in delivery, you may report concerns. Reports may be submitted anonymously where legally and practically feasible, but providing contact information may help us investigate.

13. Non-retaliation

We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith. This includes customers, partners, contractors, and any individual who reports potential harm. We will treat reports seriously and handle information sensitively.

14. Response and remediation

Where we receive credible reports, we may take actions such as:

• Request additional information to      understand the issue and assess risk.

• Engage the relevant partner or supplier to      investigate and address the concern.

• Suspend, restrict, or terminate      relationships where feasible and appropriate.

• Remove content or stop fulfilment where      products or designs create harm or violate our standards.

• Cooperate with lawful requests from      competent authorities where required.

The action we take depends on the severity of the concern, the evidence available, legal obligations, and the degree of influence we have over the situation.
