"Therefore, we are aware of material and supply chain risks and in line with our ethical standards we do not tolerate any form of human right abuse (torture, degrading treatment, forced or compulsory labor, child labour, among others), bribery, misrepresentation of origin of minerals, money laundering, tax evasion or financing of non-state armed groups. Also, we recognize the importance of public or private security forces at mine sites and/or surrounding areas and/or along transportation routes when these are solely related to the maintenance of the rule of law, safeguarding human rights or other aspects described in Annex II from the OECD Guidance."
