Why whistleblowing compliance is particularly sensitive in Russia



Implement whistleblowing frameworks adapted to Russian legal constraints



Designed for Russia’s data protection
and information control framework
Federal Law No. 152-FZ on Personal Data
Support compliance with Russia’s Personal Data Law, including localisation obligations, lawful processing, security measures and protection of personal data used in whistleblowing systems.
Data localisation and storage requirements
Ensure whistleblowing data involving Russian citizens is stored and processed on servers located within Russia, in line with localisation rules enforced by Roskomnadzor.
Labour law and internal investigation constraints
Support lawful handling of employee-related reports, ensuring investigations respect Russian labour law, confidentiality and procedural fairness requirements.
Regulatory enforcement and operational continuity
Maintain controls and documentation to reduce the risk of fines, access restrictions or blocking measures imposed by supervisory authorities.
Key capabilities that support
whistleblowing compliance in Russia
Russia-compliant data hosting options
Enable whistleblowing data to be hosted and processed in environments aligned with Russian localisation and regulatory expectations.
Strict access and confidentiality controls
Limit access to reports and personal data to authorised personnel only, reducing disclosure and enforcement risk.
Secure and traceable case handling
Manage reports through documented workflows with time-stamped actions to support defensible investigations.
Data minimisation and controlled retention
Limit collection, storage and retention of personal data to what is strictly necessary under Russian law.
Segregation of sensitive information
Separate whistleblower identity data from case content where possible to reduce exposure and risk.
Audit-ready documentation
Maintain clear records to support regulatory inspections, audits or internal reviews.
