The key aspects of anti-discrimination in sales include:

1. Equal Access. Businesses should offer goods and services to all customers without discrimination. This includes ensuring that advertising, pricing, and other terms of sale are applied equally to all customers.
2. Prohibited Discrimination. Laws prohibit discrimination based on various protected characteristics, such as race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and age.
3. Public Accommodations. Laws governing public accommodations (like stores, restaurants, etc.) ensure equal access for everyone.
4. Sales Practices. Practices like refusing to serve someone, offering different terms of sale, or engaging in discriminatory advertising are generally prohibited.
5. Real Estate. Anti-discrimination laws also apply to real estate transactions, preventing discrimination in the sale or rental of property based on protected characteristics.

Examples of discriminatory practices in sales:

• • Refusing to serve someone based on their race or religion.
  • Charging different prices or offering different terms based on gender or sexual orientation.
  • Creating advertising campaigns that exclude certain groups of people.
  • Discriminating against someone with a disability in the provision of services.

In essence, anti-discrimination in sales means upholding the principles of equality and fairness in all commercial transactions.

At MDA, we do not tolerate discrimination because Violations of anti-discrimination laws can lead to:

• • legal action
  • fines, and
  • reputational damage.

MDA implement sales policies and procedures, including the best practices of anti-discrimination in sales to:

• • prevent discrimination
  • train employees on anti-discrimination practices, and
  • address any potential issues proactively.

At MDA, we value our partners and competitors because they are important entities that contribute to the innovation of new products and the improvement of our products and services. So the key aspects of non-disparagement (clauses) include:

• • Scope of restriction. Non-disparagement clauses can vary in scope, but in our policy, they generally restrict making negative or derogatory statements about the MDA's Competitors or Partners, their products or services, their employees, directors, or officers.
  • Types of disparaging statements. "Disparagement" can include a wide range of behaviours, such as defamation, libel, slander, false light, and actions that impair the MDA and cause a reduction in the value or effectiveness of its assets, operations, or overall financial health.
  • Enforceability. While non-disparagement clauses are generally enforceable, they can be challenged if they are overly broad or restrict an Agent or Employee's rights under labour laws, such as the right to engage in protected activity under Czech National Labour Relations Act and governed by the EU directives and regulations.

Examples of non-disparagements / non-disparagement clauses

Non-disparagement clauses are commonly found in:

• • Employment contracts. that prevent employees from disparaging the company during and after their employment.
  • Severance agreements. that protect the company's reputation after an employee's departure.
  • Settlement agreements. that resolve disputes and prevent further negative statements.

A sales agent who breaches confidentiality can face legal action for breach of contract, damages, and reputational harm.

In essence, sales agent confidentiality is a critical component of ethical and legal business practices, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected and that the principal's interests are safeguarded.

A conflict of interest occurs when a Sales Agent's personal interests or gains clash against professional duties or responsibilities , and potentially leading to biased decisions or actions that benefit the Sales Agent at the expense of MDA. The party with the conflict of interest is usually asked to remove themselves or can be legally required to recuse themselves when such a situation arises. Therefore, we advise all our Sales Agents to adequately manage conflict of interest through:

• • Disclosure. The agent must disclose the conflict to the client in writing, ensuring they understand the nature and potential impact of the conflict.
  • Consent. The client must provide informed consent, either to proceed with the agent despite the conflict or to seek alternative representation.
  • Transparency. Agents should be transparent about any relationships or financial interests that could influence their decisions.
  • Independent Advice. Clients may be advised to seek independent professional advice to ensure their interests are fully protected.
  • Withdrawal. In some cases, if the conflict is significant or the client does not consent, the agent may need to withdraw from the transaction.

Failing to manage conflict of interest could lead to the following severe consequences that harm the Sales Agent's business growth:

• • Breach of Fiduciary Duty. Agents have a fiduciary duty to act in the client best interest and failing to manage a conflict can be a breach of this duty.
  • Loss of Client Trust. Conflicts of interest can erode client trust and damage the agent's reputation.
  • Legal and Regulatory Action. Depending on the jurisdiction, agents may face legal or regulatory consequences for failing to disclose or manage conflicts appropriately.
