Frequently asked questions

What is included in the kit?

55 editable templates covering the full HinSchG / Whistleblower Protection scope: reporting-office setup (§ 12), confidentiality concept (§ 8), reporting-channel architecture (anonymous incl. since 1 Jan 2025), case-handling playbook, anti-retaliation policies (§ 36-37), GDPR bridge (DPIA, RoPA entry, privacy notice), effectiveness self-review, training materials with quiz and certificate.

Can I keep the templates forever?

Yes. After purchase you receive a download link containing all personalised Word templates. The files belong to you completely — you can store, integrate, edit and archive them. No cloud dependency, no per-device license activation, no internet connection required for use.

What does "buy once, always up-to-date" mean?

You receive all updates of the kit as long as the kit is maintained in its current major version. Updates arrive when authorities publish new guidance, new case law is published, or known follow-up phases of a regulation kick in. If a substantially new regulation supersedes the existing one, a new major version emerges — existing customers receive a 50% discount. Details in Terms § 7.

What does the 60-day money-back guarantee cover?

If a template content is provably legally incorrect (proven by a lawyer's letter or authority statement), we refund the purchase price plus demonstrable consequential costs — up to a maximum of twice the purchase price. Deadline: 60 days from delivery. Details in Terms § 8.

From how many employees is the reporting office mandatory?

From 50 employees (§ 12 HinSchG). Below 50: not required, but recommended. For corporations: § 14 special rules apply (hybrid models).

Are anonymous reports mandatory?

Yes, since 1 January 2025 (§ 16 para. 1 sentence 4 HinSchG). The reporting office must be able to process anonymous reports — including a return channel.

Can I use an external reporting office?

Yes, from 50 employees you can choose between internal or external (e.g. law firm, BMJ federal office). External often offers higher confidentiality and lower insider risk.

Fine risk for non-compliance?

Up to EUR 50,000 (legal entity, § 40). Plus § 37 damages, which can include all lost income until retirement of the affected whistleblower.
