Policy Regarding Use and Release of Alumni and Donor Information

Â鶹AV does not sell, rent, market or otherwise disclose alumni and donor information to any outside party or vendor for non-University purposes, unless required under the law.  Alumni and donor information is confidential and access to alumni and donor information is strictly limited to University Advancement staff members with a business need, and, as appropriate, with those in administration and academic units and programs who support development and alumni relations activities.  Alumni and Donor information has been entrusted to Â鶹AV for business purposes and all faculty and staff are bound by a professional code of ethics and will do their best to safeguard the privacy and security of this information.

Â鶹AV will share contact information with third-party vendors for the explicit and limited purpose of facilitating the University’s mission through development and engagement programs.  When such contact information is shared with the third-party vendor, the vendor will be required to sign a written non-disclosure agreement pledging that the information will be used only for its intended purpose; will be stored securely; and will not be reproduced, resold or provided to any other individual, entity or organization.

Persons with responsibility for maintaining records containing personal information will exercise due care to ensure accuracy and completeness.  Strict physical, electronic and procedural safeguards will be utilized to protect personal information against accidental or intentional misuse or improper disclosure within or outside of Â鶹AV.
