A.Global Hotline protects your anonymity. If a reporter elects to make a report anonymously, D-Quest must protect the reporter’s identity from disclosure to SEKISUI. However, if you wish to remain anonymous, you need to ensure that the body of the report does not reveal your identity by accident. Additionally, there is a possibility that SEKISUI representatives may become aware of the reporter’s identity through the investigation. In such cases, SEKISUI representatives will maintain the confidentiality of the reporter’s identity.
