Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement

1. Introduction

This statement is made pursuant to section 54 of the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps that Virtual Viewing Ltd has taken, and continues to take, to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not taking place within its business operations or supply chains.

This statement applies to Virtual Viewing Ltd and its associated operations and products, including its digital platforms and services.

Virtual Viewing Ltd is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all its business relationships and to implementing effective systems and controls to prevent modern slavery in any part of its business or supply chains.

2. Organisation Structure, Business and Supply Chains

Virtual Viewing Ltd is a technology company operating in the built-environment and property-technology sector. The company provides cloud-based digital platforms, data management solutions, and AI-enabled services that support building operations, compliance, and asset management across the real estate and infrastructure lifecycle.

Our core activities include:

  • Software development and cloud-based platform delivery

  • Data analytics, AI and digital twin technologies

  • Integration with building management systems (BMS), IoT devices, and third-party data providers

  • Professional and technical services related to digital asset management

Our supply chains primarily consist of:

  • Software and cloud infrastructure providers

  • Technology vendors and data service providers

  • Professional services suppliers (including engineering, surveying, and consultancy services)

  • Office, IT, and administrative service providers

The majority of our suppliers are based in the UK, Europe, Australia, and other jurisdictions with established labour and employment regulations.

3. Policies in Relation to Slavery and Human Trafficking

Virtual Viewing Ltd operates a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. We are committed to ensuring that there is no forced labour, bonded labour, child labour, or human trafficking within our business or supply chains.

Our approach is supported by the following policies and principles:

  • Code of Conduct and ethical business standards

  • Supplier expectations relating to lawful employment, fair wages, and safe working conditions

  • Compliance with applicable employment, health and safety, and labour laws

  • Commitment to internationally recognised human rights standards

We expect all employees, contractors, and suppliers to act in a manner consistent with these principles.

4. Due Diligence Processes

Virtual Viewing Ltd undertakes due diligence to identify, assess, and mitigate the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking within its operations and supply chains.

Our due diligence processes include:

  • Risk-based supplier assessment during onboarding

  • Preference for suppliers operating in jurisdictions with strong labour protections

  • Review of supplier business practices and contractual commitments where appropriate

  • Ongoing monitoring of supplier relationships

  • Termination or remediation action where unacceptable risks are identified

Where relevant, suppliers may be required to confirm compliance with modern slavery legislation and ethical labour standards.

5. Risk Assessment and Risk Management

Due to the nature of our business as a technology and professional services provider, the overall risk of modern slavery within our direct operations is considered low.

However, we recognise that certain areas of the wider supply chain may present higher inherent risks, including:

  • Global technology hardware manufacturing

  • Outsourced professional or technical services

  • Indirect supply chains beyond first-tier suppliers

To manage these risks, we:

  • Apply a risk-based approach to supplier selection

  • Engage with suppliers to promote transparency and ethical practices

  • Monitor industry guidance and regulatory developments

  • Review and update our internal controls as required

6. Effectiveness and Performance Monitoring

Virtual Viewing Ltd measures the effectiveness of its approach to preventing modern slavery through:

  • Ongoing review of supplier relationships

  • Internal reporting and escalation mechanisms

  • Periodic review of policies and procedures

  • Management oversight of ethical and compliance matters

As our business grows, we will continue to refine and enhance our performance indicators to ensure continuous improvement.

7. Training and Capacity Building

Virtual Viewing Ltd is committed to raising awareness of modern slavery and human trafficking risks among its workforce.

Training and awareness activities include:

  • Internal guidance on ethical conduct and supplier engagement

  • Management awareness of modern slavery obligations

  • Inclusion of modern slavery considerations in procurement and supplier discussions

Additional training will be introduced as appropriate to support business growth and evolving regulatory expectations.
