desktop computers, laptops, handheld devices (including but not limited to iPhones, smart
phones, iPads, and other electronic tablets and cell phones), computer software/hardware and
servers provided by the Company. DELFI also uses various forms of “electronic communication.”
“Electronic communications” includes e-mail, text or instant messages, telephones, cell phones
and other handheld devices (such as smart phones, writing tablets or iPads), fax machines, and
online services including the Internet. “Electronic information” is any information created by an
employee using computers or any means of electronic communication, including but not limited
to, data, messages, multimedia data, and files.

The following general policies apply:
● Computers and all data transmitted through DELFI servers are Company property owned
by the Company for the purpose of conducting Company business. These items must be
maintained according to DELFI rules and regulations. Computers must be kept clean, and
employees must exercise care to prevent loss and damage. Prior authorization must be
obtained before any Company property, other than Company-provided laptops and
cellphones, may be removed from the premises.
● All electronic communications and information also remain the sole property of DELFI.
For example, email and slack messages are considered Company records.

Company policy or any law occurs), the Company reserves the right to access, review and
