NASPA agrees with the philosophy that an individual has the right to know how their personally identifying data is being used by NASPA.
NASPA maintains industry-standard security of personally identifying data and updates those protocols on a regular basis. Our volunteer leaders are provided with information on data security and privacy on at least an annual basis.
NASPA, and our affiliated organizations, uses personally identifying data to provide information about the products, programs and services that an individual may be interested in. NASPA uses the information provided in an individual’s profile to customize the information they receive or may be presented with.
NASPA uses publicly available data about institutions to further customize the information an individual may receive or be presented with based on the fact that the individual is an employee of that institution.
NASPA uses data about previous registrations, purchases, downloads, subscriptions, or other transactions to customize the information an individual may receive or be presented with.
NASPA uses data in aggregate to identify trends about groups of individuals and about the industry itself.
When a product, program, or service is being conducted, administered, or coordinated by volunteer leader(s) of NASPA, NASPA will share contact information (does not include phone numbers) about the individual and about the individual’s purchase or registration with those volunteers. NASPA will only share the information needed to facilitate the interaction. NASPA will never share financial information such as credit card numbers.
When a product, program, or service is co-sponsored by NASPA and an unrelated organization, NASPA, with your permission, will share basic contact information (name, job title, institution, and preferred mailing address) with that co-sponsor. An individual can decline the opportunity to share their information at the time of registration or purchase. We do not share email addresses or phone numbers.
