# EthicsPortal > EthicsPortal is EU whistleblower compliance infrastructure: a hosted, anonymous internal > whistleblowing channel that organizations deploy to meet EU Directive 2019/1937 and its national > transpositions. One flat plan, EU-hosted, operational in minutes. ## What EthicsPortal is EthicsPortal is a hosted whistleblowing channel for EU Directive 2019/1937 compliance.
