Code of Conduct

We want to build software that connects people with their work - that’s the mission that drives us every day. Flip is an app on your employees’ smartphones - which means we are aware of our special responsibility to build software that is truly secure and protects private data.

In this Code of Conduct, our behavior code, we have written down what is really important to us and how we ensure that we act ethically and responsibly every day. So that we protect those who help us achieve our mission every day: Our employees, customers, partners and the community in which we work.
