Environmental, Social, and Governance

The 2024 Environmental, Social, and Governance Report addresses those ESG topics that we believe our investors, employees, customers, vendors, and other stakeholders consider the most important. We look forward to reporting our progress as we further integrate sustainability into our operations.

Environment

In 2024 we purchased removals for approximately 5,000 metric tons of CO2e, exceeding our original commitment, by not only offsetting 100% of our residual Scope 1 and 2 emissions, but also a portion of our Scope 3 emissions. In addition, in 2024 our principal executive office, located in New York City, began to offset all of its electricity-related emission through the use of renewable energy certificates. We will continue to apply a data driven approach to understanding our environmental impact and identify opportunities for improvement.

Governance

ESG is a key priority at Datadog, with direct oversight from the Board of Directors and management. Our board as a whole and through its committees oversees ESG governance, and is advised by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which oversees the company’s ESG programs. Our Audit Committee oversees financial reporting risks, including internal controls, enterprise risk assessment, cybersecurity and privacy, and our Compensation Committee oversees company risks and policies related to compensation, recruiting, talent development, retention and diversity of our global workforce.

Human Capital

Datadogs do their best work when they’re supported, healthy, and growing. That’s why we invest in programs that focus on well-being, development, and inclusion. By creating a culture that values different perspectives and celebrates curiosity, we help every teammate reach their full potential.

Our commitment to reduce or offset our Scope 1 and 2 emissions is a “forward-looking” statement. See the Appendix to our ESG Report for important information regarding this commitment.
