Dynata Environmental, Social and Governance
(ESG) Statement: Current Practices

Dynata is a data-driven organization that is committed to corporate social responsibility and sustainability through the systematic application of environmental, social and governance principles throughout the organization. These disciplines guide us in acting responsibly and with care both within our organization and in our external partnerships.

Privacy and Data Security
Dynata recognizes the importance of data privacy and data security and has established an Information Security program to manage Dynata’s data security requirements and constantly monitor developing trends and threats. The program is led by qualified information security professionals who closely collaborate with Dynata’s Legal Department to ensure that any contractual or regulatory data protection requirements are integrated into the information security program. The Information Security team leverages all the necessary departments and staff at Dynata to address security issues as they arise.

Environmental
Dynata minimizes environmental impact through our partnership with Ecosia, a search engine that donates 100% of revenue profit on reforestation efforts. In nearly 3 years of partnering with Ecosia, we have planted over 70,000 trees and counting. We achieve this using the Ecosia search engine on all Dynata devices. Additionally, in 2024, we have planted a tree for every Dynata employee to celebrate our GIVE initiative outlined in the next section.

In tandem with our efforts to offset our environmental impact, Dynata currently measures Scope 2 Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Our current process uses location-based methodologies as we look to reduce our carbon footprint.

Social
Dynata is committed to making an impact in the industry, from ensuring our panels are diverse to guiding our clients on how to be more inclusive in their research. Dynata prioritizes the wellbeing of all our employees by our robust commitment to diversity and inclusion, career development, and opportunity to contribute meaningfully to their own communities. Our efforts include but are not limited to:

  • GIVE: (Get Involved, Engage, Volunteer) is a global community service initiative which allows employees a paid half day to volunteer in their local communities.
  • Employee Wellbeing initiatives focused on career, social, financial, community, and physical wellbeing.
  • Women in Research (WIRe) corporate sponsor and active collaborator for the advancement of professional development of women in research.
  • Global employee recognition program which allows peers and leaders to celebrate individuals and teams
  • D&I cohorts across each region that drive localization of our D&I pillars
  • Active employee resource groups who work to drive further advancement of historically underrepresented groups
  • Yearly D&I focused compliance for all employees

Governance
Dynata has earned a strong reputation for committed quality, value, integrity, and trustworthiness from customers worldwide because our employees meet the highest standards of ethical conduct, service, and product innovation. As such, we are committed to maintaining those standards, and to preserve the trust we have earned over the years. Adhering to our Business Code of Conduct and practicing our company values accomplishes these objectives. Dynata also requires mandatory training to its employees on compliance topics such as anti‐harassment, anti‐bribery, data protection, and others.

We believe in and trust our employees. We consider each employee to be a mature, responsible adult; and our employees share common goals, values and objectives. It is expected that everyone engages in the highest standards of business conduct so that the safety, security, and wellbeing of all employees, customers, and neighboring communities, as well as company assets and property, can be protected.
