This letter serves as a formal written warning regarding conduct that directly contravenes Sections 7.4 (External Communications) and 4.2 (Handling of Confidential Information) of the Halden Dynamics Employee Handbook.
On the evening of 6 November 2025, you published a post to your personal LinkedIn profile which included a screenshot of the internal Q1–Q3 2026 product roadmap presented at the All-Hands meeting on 4 November. The image clearly displayed unreleased feature names, projected launch windows, and a draft pricing tier not yet approved for external disclosure.
The post remained publicly visible for approximately nine hours, generating 312 reactions and 47 comments before being removed at the request of the Communications team. Two trade publications referenced the image prior to removal.
Product roadmap material is classified Internal — Restricted under our data handling framework. Its premature release compromises competitive positioning, undermines coordinated go-to-market planning, and places the company at risk of inaccurate reporting by external parties. It also erodes the trust that allows us to share candid information across the organisation.
We accept that the post was made with enthusiasm for the work, not malice. That context informs the level of this warning, but does not alter the breach itself.
You may submit a written response to this warning within 10 business days of receipt. Responses should be addressed to the Head of People Operations and will be filed alongside this notice. You may also request a review meeting with an HR partner not involved in the original investigation.
