Omidyar Network board and staff adhere to the following policies:
Omidyar Network does not use tax-exempt foundation dollars to pay for the salaries of any of our employees. We use market-based comparisons to set salaries for Omidyar Network employees.
The purpose of Omidyar Network’s Conflict of Interest Policy is to promote honest and ethical behavior at Omidyar Network through full disclosure of actual and potential conflicts of interest and the establishment of procedures to resolve such conflicts fairly and transparently. The Conflict of Interest Policy applies to directors, managers, officers, employees, and, to the extent determined by the Business Ethics Officer, consultants and agents (each, a “Covered Individual”) of Omidyar Network.
Omidyar Network is a philanthropic organization that makes investments in both for-profit and nonprofit organizations. Our business relationships are managed by our investment professionals, and we do not accept unsolicited business plans, funding proposals, or personal funding requests. Omidyar Network does not offer memberships, and any invitation to apply to become a paid ‘member’ of Omidyar Network is fraudulent.
In light of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation and the California Consumer Privacy Act, we have updated our privacy policy which can be found here.
Omidyar Network is committed to enhancing the integrity of the people, processes, and other resources deployed through our firm. We believe that our communications, internal controls, and processes must constantly adapt to the changing environments in which we operate. We operate an ethics hotline to enable our employees to easily and confidentially report any issues or instances of misconduct, violation, abuse, or misdeed. Any information provided is sent to us by the ethics hotline on a totally confidential and anonymous basis. The employee is protected and has the ability to follow up to ensure their report is addressed. Information about this hotline is distributed to all Omidyar Network employees and board members on a regular basis. Funding recipients, consultants, funding partners, and other non-employee parties can also confidentially raise concerns or report any issues at the following hotline: https://omidyarnetwork.allvoices.co/.
