How We Solve Compliance Problems
Anonymous Reporting that Protects Whistleblowers
While legacy platforms collect IP addresses “for security,” we don’t log them at all. True 2048-bit encryption, zero device fingerprinting, and no metadata collection means whistleblowers can communicate throughout investigations without fear. When people trust the system actually protects them, they report early-stage issues instead of staying silent until problems explode.
AI Case Management Built for Compliance Context
Generic AI can’t tell the difference between a harassment complaint and someone asking about vacation policy. Our machine learning was trained on compliance data to automatically transcribe voice reports, recognize regulatory trigger words across multiple languages, and anonymize personal data while preserving investigation context. Case summarization happens without human intervention, and routing follows legal requirements rather than arbitrary rules.
Investigation Workflows Designed by Compliance Professionals
Skip the workflow diagrams created by consultants who’ve never handled real investigations. Granular permission controls, secure two-way communication with whistleblowers, and the ability to pause and resume cases match how compliance work actually happens. Complete audit trails satisfy regulators while investigation efficiency improves through intelligent automation.
European Regulatory Intelligence Built In
HinSchG timelines, GDPR data handling, and Sapin II requirements aren’t configuration options – they’re baked into the platform architecture. Built in Germany by people who regularly deal with Data Protection Authorities. Native EU Whistleblower Directive support means no gaps in regulatory coverage.
Proven results from global organizations
“EQS offered the most straightforward solution for our global operations. Our caseworkers now handle reports much more efficiently.”

Challenge
Low engagement with previous whistleblowing system, especially among its young, digital-native workforce. Reports were minimal, and the process didn’t inspire trust.
Result
The compliance team selected EQS Integrity Line for its secure, anonymous communication and easy case management. They launched the new digital platform “PUMA SpeakUp!” with internal marketing campaigns and full leadership endorsement.
Increased report volume, globally
Smooth internal rollout with high awareness
High use of anonymous, secure messaging
How Integrity Line works
Anonymous Reporting
Employees submit reporting through encrypted channels with full anonymity protection. Multiple intake options include web portal, phone hotline, and mobile app with AI transcriptions of voice recordings.
AI Processing and Anonymization
Incoming reports are processed through AI engines that automatically anonymize personal data, transcribe voice recordings, and extract key case details for immediate assessment.
Auto-triage and Assignment
Reports get categorized and assigned automatically using six configurable attributes. Senior issues escalate immediately to appropriate leadership; routine matters flow through standard channels. Advanced case management captures rich metadata for comprehensive reporting.
Investigation Management
Track investigations with granular permissions, built-in workflow management, deadline alerts, and secure document handling – all while maintaining audit trails for regulatory compliance.
Resolution and Reporting
Close cases with proper documentation and generate regulatory reports as needed for authorities using captured metadata and case analytics.

What compliance officers really want to know
How does your anonymous reporting actually protect whistleblower identity?
Zero IP tracking, no device fingerprinting, encrypted data storage, and AI-powered personal data anonymization. Built for compliance officers like you who understand that “anonymous” means anonymous.
How quickly can we deploy a compliant whistleblowing program?
Standard implementations take a few business days. Complex multinational programs take 8–12 weeks with proper project management – because compliance software that matters takes time to implement correctly.
Can your AI case management handle multilingual investigations?
AI translation trained specifically for compliance contexts across 80+ languages. Maintains investigation meaning while ensuring personal data anonymization throughout the process.
What happens during regulatory audits?
Comprehensive audit trails, proper data retention policies, and documentation designed to satisfy European regulators – not just pass checkbox security reviews.
Where is data stored?
Choose from data centers in multiple regions including North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. All facilities are ISO 27001-certified.
How is data privacy ensured?
