Responsible Marketing

To continuously strengthen our responsible business model, we released the Yum China Responsible Marketing Policy in 2022.
We have also established a Marketing Communication Committee, composed of multiple function teams. The assessment and review process of the Committee ensures our marketing communication contents are accurate and legitimate. In addition, we regularly conduct responsible marketing training for relevant employees to ensure that they are kept abreast of the latest audit requirements and relevant law and regulation updates

Safeguarding our Brands and Intellectual Property

Yum China attaches great importance to protecting intellectual property (IP) and strictly abides by IP-related laws and regulations. We have tailor-made an IP protection system compatible with Yum China's institutional characteristics to safeguard our brands and reputation. We promptly apply for protection of our IPs and oppose vigorously any infringement of our rights through digital empowerment.

Enhancing Customer Experience

We always put customer satisfaction first, and listen carefully to their opinions through multiple channels, including online surveys, online community panels, focus groups, one-on-one interviews, and offline surveys. We collect and analyze customer feedback from social media and other channels to continuously improve and enhance customer service level.

The Guest Experience Survey (GES) system is one of our customer feedback channels. We use this system to collect customer feedback promptly and use customer ratings as one of the important performance indicators for assessing stores, to encourage them to continuously improve service quality.

In 2022, the system launched the function of uploading and analyzing images provided by our customers, collecting an average of 25,000 images per month, and analyzing this visual data to supplement customers' written feeback. At the same time, with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI) analysis system, through automatically classify and analyze product issues, we developed customized solutions for customer feedback and improve service quality. When the GES system receives a low rating, our Customer Service Platform (CSP) will be automatically pushed to us for further tracking and follow-up. Customers may also file complaints on the CSP by scanning the QR code provided in restaurants or logging onto our app. We also have established different levels of complaints handling and mediation mechanisms, and formulated clear responsibilities and time standards for complaint handling. We use digital technology to ensure timely responses, rapid handling, and effective resolution to improve the customer experience.

Digital Infrastructure

Yum China places significant importance on digitalization as a vital driver for supporting our business's resilience and long-term development, and strives to construct a robust digital ecosystem.
We continuously invest in industry-leading digital infrastructure to reinforce our business moat and have inaugurated a Digital R&D Centers with offices in Shanghai, Nanjing, and Xi'an. Our dedication to exploring and implementing innovative digital technologies, such as big data, AI, and intelligent interaction, remains steadfast. These technologies are fully integrated into our business scenarios to optimize customer experience and promote sustainable business growth.

System
Our information technology systems are protected through technological safeguards and management measures. We detect, identify, assess and mitigate cybersecurity risks by adopting standard risk management methodologies, which are developed based on the international cybersecurity management system standard ISO 27001 as well as the asset-oriented risk assessment framework. To minimize potential impact on business operations in the event of a cybersecurity incident, we have formulated, and regularly tested, our incident response plan. We also established a framework for data security and personal information protection, including measures to prevent data loss and detect and block abnormal accounts and activities, as well as systems and processes to prevent, detect and mitigate vulnerabilities. We engage in the periodic assessment of these processes and practices that are designed to address cybersecurity threats and incidents.

Yum China Compliance Oversight Committee (the "Compliance Committee") is responsible for assisting the Board and Audit Committee in overseeing the Company’s cybersecurity risks. The Compliance Committee meets regularly to discuss legal and regulatory developments on cybersecurity, assess the Company's emerging cybersecurity risks and mitigation plans, and determine strategy to promote cybersecurity compliance.
We strengthened the construction of our information and data security management system.
In 2022, we carried out a comprehensive upgrade of the terminal security protection of Zeus Platform, our core information security protection and management platform, and conducted red-blue confrontation exercises to test and improve the platform's network security capabilities. In addition, we developed a data security platform to execute system data security reinforcement and standardized management of sensitive data.
We continue to strengthen the information security training system to provide our employees as well as our third-party suppliers with training and assessments both online and offline, to raise their data security protection awareness.
We also conduct regular mandatory training on data and information security awareness for employees, requiring all employees to pass assessments to demonstrate their knowledge. For new employees, we use a combination of online and offline training methods to familiarize them with the Company's information security policies and precautions.
