THNC’s code of ethics came from Mr. Frank W. Abignale. He believes that every company should have, support, and live by its code of ethics, and so do we. Ours is an adaptation of his document.
a. Internal Conduct and Practices
i. Adherence to the Law: In all pursuits on behalf of the company, volunteers and employees of The Home Network Center (THNC) are expected to abide by all established laws, refrain from all illegal activities, and recognize the intent – not just the letter – of law.
ii. Conflicts of Interest: THNC volunteers and employees are expected to avoid activities or influences that conflict with, compete with, or interfere with the performance of their duties or that give the appearance of doing so.
iii. Financial Responsibility: Use of THNC funds or funds of members by volunteers or employees is for legal and ethical business purposes only, and all transactions are properly and accurately recorded.
iv. Confidentiality/Privacy: THNC volunteers and employees will respect and treat as confidential all information available from company records or received in the course of voluntarism or employment.
v. Personal and Corporate Accountability: We must live by and apply THNC’s Ethical Standard so as to gauge the actions of ourselves as we do to gauge those of others.
