LEAKED SHELL INTERNAL WARNING FROM ROYAL DUTCH SHELL PLC CHIEF ETHICS & COMPLIANCE OFFICER RICHARD WISEMAN (RIGHT) REGARDING THE LEAK OF THE SHELL GLOBAL ADDRESS BOOK:
I do not feel that there is any need to be alarmed
Colleagues,
I am writing to inform you of an incident involving misuse of company data.
It has become clear recently that the Global Address List, containing contact information of everyone in Shell and some contractors, joint ventures and other third parties, has been downloaded without authorisation and distributed to some external parties. We do not know who did this. We are investigating and are raising this theft of information with the relevant data protection authorities. The incident is receiving some media coverage.
I do not feel that there is any need to be alarmed. However, as a precaution, if you receive any nuisance telephone calls or e-mails then please contact your line manager, HR or security.
Whilst writing about this incident, I would like to take the opportunity to remind us all of the requirements of the Code of Conduct relating to Information Management, including data privacy and communications.
Richard Wiseman
Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer
COMMENT BY JOHN DONOVAN
I note an important inconsistency between what Richard Wiseman is saying to Shell employees compared with what he has said to me in email correspondence. Mr Wiseman claimed in an email that there is a risk to the personal safety not only to Shell employees but “considerable numbers of people not employed by Shell but who are employed by third parties”. Contrast this with his message to Shell employees published above. Mr Wiseman does not mention any personal risk to the safety of people listed in the directory. Instead, the worst potential consequent of the database leak is downplayed to the possibility of the listed people receiving nuisance phone calls. So who is Mr Wiseman attempting to mislead: me, or over 100,000 people in the Global Address List?
Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
IN JULY 2007, MR BILL CAMPBELL (ABOVE, A RETIRED GROUP AUDITOR OF SHELL INTERNATIONAL SENT AN EMAIL TO EVERY UK MP AND MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS:
