Initforce Partner Code of Conduct
Effective Date: March 21, 2025
Website: www.initforce.com
At Initforce, we’re proud to work with a growing network of partners and collaborators across the Salesforce ecosystem. Whether you’re a freelancer, subcontractor, boutique agency, or a technology partner — we value your role in helping us deliver impactful Salesforce solutions.
This Code of Conduct outlines the expectations, standards, and shared values that guide our work together.
Our Values
This Code is rooted in Initforce’s values, which define who we are and how we deliver Salesforce solutions:
Customer-First Mindset
We walk alongside our Salesforce clients and do what it takes to help them succeed — through delivery excellence, empathy, and value-driven innovation.
Think Beyond the Project
We stay curious, seek improvement, and always look at how our solutions can serve long-term business outcomes, not just immediate goals.
Win Together
We believe Salesforce success is a team sport — collaboration, transparency, and respect are key to building strong relationships.
Respect Every Perspective
We listen, value different views, and welcome contributions from everyone — inside and outside Initforce.
People Make the Difference
We care about people. Our consultants, clients, and partners bring unique strengths that make the Salesforce journey rewarding.
Courage to Speak Up
We encourage feedback, own mistakes, and are brave enough to challenge ideas when it serves the client, the product, or the bigger picture.
Who This Code Applies To
This Code applies to all partners, freelancers, contractors, vendors, and third-party collaborators working with Initforce in any Salesforce-related engagement.
By working with us, you agree to uphold these standards and values, and to notify us of any breaches or suspected violations. We may conduct due diligence, audits, or reviews to assess compliance.
What We Expect from You
Legal Compliance
You must comply with all relevant local, national, and international laws, including those related to labor, tax, intellectual property, data protection, and anti-corruption.
Anti-Bribery and Corruption
We have zero tolerance for bribery, kickbacks, or unethical influence in Salesforce project delivery, procurement, or customer engagement.
Diversity, Inclusion & Fairness
You are expected to:
- Promote equal opportunity in hiring, promotion, and compensation
- Comply with anti-discrimination laws
- Foster a workplace free of bullying and harassment
Data Privacy & Confidentiality
As we often handle Salesforce org data, user credentials, or client business information, you must:
- Comply with GDPR, CCPA, or other applicable privacy laws
- Protect all confidential, personal, or sensitive data you access
- Never share client data without written approval
- Report any suspected data breaches immediately
Security Practices
Follow basic cybersecurity hygiene, including:
- Using strong, unique passwords
- Enabling multi-factor authentication on Salesforce and related tools
- Only accessing environments or tools you are authorized for
Human Rights & Ethical Labor
You must not:
- Use or benefit from forced, child, or trafficked labor
- Engage in inhumane treatment of workers, including harassment or abuse
- Participate in or support any form of modern slavery
Health & Safety
If you manage physical premises or staff, ensure a safe working environment that complies with occupational health and safety laws.
Sustainability
While our work is mostly digital, we encourage all partners to minimize environmental impact and adopt sustainable practices where possible (e.g. remote work policies, reducing travel, energy-efficient equipment).
Questions or Concerns
If you’re unsure about any part of this Code — or want to report an issue — please reach out to your Initforce point of contact or email us confidentially:
We handle all reports with care and confidentiality, and retaliation of any kind is not tolerated.
Final Note
Working with Salesforce is a privilege and a responsibility. This Code helps us ensure that, together, we’re building solutions that are not only smart and scalable — but ethical, inclusive, and future-ready.
