Environment, Social and Governance
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) is part of Altares’s strategy to ensure the company holds responsibility for the planet, the society, and is accountable to itself, to its employees and its stakeholders.
ESG
The Altares Group, a European expert in data intelligence, relies on its unique base of certified and enriched data to offer solutions that increase the performance of its customers’ key processes. Conscious of the challenges of promoting information intended for third parties, the company is naturally aware of the stakes of its Corporate Social Responsibility.
Our Commitment

2. make sure that they are not complicit in human rights absuses.
Environment
3. Businesses should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges.
4. Undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility ; and
5. Encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.
Labour
