Message from the Co-CEOs

At Celonis, fair and ethical behavior is intrinsic to our values as a company. We always want to do the right thing, by maintaining integrity and trust at the forefront of what we do every day, putting our customers, partners, and employees at the center of our actions. We share a passion for being a conscientious corporate citizen and that includes our commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, community, and inclusion.

We recognize that sometimes doing the right thing isn’t always obvious and understanding what global laws and regulations apply or what they mean isn’t always clear-cut. The Celonis Code of Conduct & Ethics (“Code”) reflects our values and sets up a framework to help guide you to uphold our core values in a business environment that becomes more complex every day.

As Celonauts, we are all responsible for maintaining our culture. Together, we can create an environment in which people are compelled to do the right thing, where people feel comfortable asking questions and reporting concerns and where leaders and managers lead by example.

This Code embodies our core values and helps guide us in a way that ensures our customers, our partners, and our employees can trust us.

What we are

Code Overview

Celonis’ reputation and success depend on us making choices that reflect our values, our policies, and the law. The Celonis Code of Conduct & Ethics (“Code”) was created to help you make choices consistent with our high business standards. When you have a concern or face a difficult decision, this Code is your guide. Our Code applies to everyone at Celonis, including all members of our Board of Directors, employees, contractors/contingent workers, and consultants in connection with their work for Celonis, as well as our partners. Please note that there is a dedicated Supplier Code of Conduct.

While our Code addresses a wide range of business practices, it cannot address every question you might have. Many problems are avoided simply by using good judgment, but when you are not sure what to do, you have a responsibility to ask questions and raise concerns. You do not have to decide on your own how best to proceed in uncertain situations; please contact the resources listed in the “Do The Right Thing” chapter to help you.

As you review this Code, please remember that making poor choices can lead to significant consequences for you and Celonis. Violating our Code, our policies or the law, means you may be subject to discipline that could include termination of employment or ending a contract for your services, possibly even legal action.
