Introduction

At MPI we recognize the importance of securing and protecting all data and the privacy of certain basic personally identifiable data, such as contact information, demographic information and payment processing information. We do not collect data from individuals unless provided to us voluntarily and knowingly and with access to update and change the data at will. We have adopted this Data Privacy Policy to guide how we and our affiliates (i.e. account holders, members, vendors, staff, chapter leadership) use such information. This policy meets the requirements of GDPR, PIPEDA, and the FTC Act.

 

Purpose

The purpose of this Policy is to balance our legitimate business requirements in collecting and using information with the reasonable expectation of privacy and security which may be held by those providing such information.

 

Data Collection

It is necessary for us to collect and store information to provide requested member and customer communication and related services and for billing purposes. Many state and federal laws require the collection and retention of some or all of such information for a determinate period of time. At MPI we collect data via four methods: membership registration, event activities, vendor partnerships, and purchases.

 

Membership and Account Holder Information

We collect key information from our members to provide valuable member services and for operational effectiveness. Members provide data directly when creating an MPI account and can update preferences via the web portal. We collect additional data upon engagement with our website using cookie based technology.

We specifically collect these types of data:

Name and contact data. We collect your first and last name, phone number, address, email address, and other related data.

Demographic data. We collect data about you such as your gender, chapter membership, and country.

Payment data. We collect data necessary to process your payment if you make purchases (such as a credit card number).

Credentials. We collect passwords, password hints, and similar security information used for authentication of accounts.

Session Tracking. At times we record user sessions on our website to identify how we can provide better features and services.

Contact Logs. Any communication or contact with MPI members is tracked in contact logs as well as additional engagement data (clock hours, conference attendance, purchases, etc.).

 

Event Information

At times, MPI receives and collects personal information through informal methods such as business cards, sign up lists, and event registration. In these cases, we only use this information to provide member services and stated purposes outlined upon collection. Marketing, advertisements, and solicitations will not be sent unless explicitly outlined and agreed to in this data privacy statement.

 

Vendor Partnerships

We partner with third-party vendors who provide additional services such as learning management systems, speaker contracting, surveys, and job boards. These partners may maintain member data specific to their provided service. All vendors are vetted to ensure they have proper data privacy and security procedures.

For the complete list of MPI's third-party partners contact dataprivacy@mpi.org.

 

Purchased Data

We purchase data from vetted vendors. To ensure above board practices, we vet each vendor to ensure compliant data collection, security, and use policies and processes. All purchased data collection and use will follow the guidelines stated in this policy and the terms specified by the vendor.

 

Data Privacy Options

You have choices about the data we collect. When you are asked to provide personal data, you may opt out. However, please note certain contact information is required for MPI membership.

To update your data or change preferences simply navigate to the "Account Settings" section of the MPI website.

To request anonymization or deletion of your data, please fill out this form. MPI will ensure the request is fulfilled within 30 days excluding the extent MPI is required by law to retain some or all the member data.

Security

The security of data is very important to us and we are committed to protecting the information we collect. We collect information only in a manner deemed reasonably necessary to serve our legitimate business purposes and comply with our legal obligations. We use commercially reasonable efforts to make our collection of information consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. We exercise care in providing secure transmission and storage of information. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot warrant that all data we transmit, store and collect will be completely secure. We take commercially reasonable efforts to create and maintain firewalls, restricted access and secure socket layers, and other appropriate safeguards to ensure that, to the extent we control information, it is used only as authorized by us and consistent with this Policy, and that information is not improperly altered or destroyed. In addition, within MPI we limit data access to only what is required for a role to complete their responsibilities. Our privacy protection practices help us maintain accurate, timely, complete and relevant information for our business purposes. Our communication system, software and database practices have been designed to aid us in supporting authenticity, integrity and confidentiality.

 

Data Breach Policy

We want to ensure that your identity and data stays secure; therefore, if an incident does occur, and for incidents that occur at our third-party vendors, we will promptly inform affected individuals as may be required by law or our policies.

 

Data Use

We may use your information to offer goods and services we believe will be of value to members on behalf of MPI, our affiliates and our partners. We may use contact data to inquire or survey about conference experiences, chapter engagement, education opportunities or general membership satisfaction. We may also create and use aggregate information that is not personally identifiable to understand more about the common profiles and interests of our members and website visitors.

 

Special Offers and Promotion Options

It is MPI's policy to only communicate with members via channels that have been informed and accepted via this policy and on the online preference page. Members, account holders, and visitors are given the opportunity to alter communication preferences via the membership account portal.

All communications will provide the opportunity to opt-out of future similar communications.

 

Vendor Partners

MPI shares personal data with vendors working on our behalf for the purposes described in this statement. For example, vendors securing our systems and services may need access to personal data to provide those functions. In such cases, these companies must abide by the MPI Data Privacy Policy and are contractually prohibited from using personal data they obtain for any other purpose.

 

Third-Party Offers

Members can opt in for a wider range of services and products through advertising and marketing. Our partners are subject to MPI's data policy guidelines and members will only receive the information for which explicit permission has been granted.

 

Event Coordination and Third-Party Offers

Individuals may be required to agree to MPI's data privacy policy when registering for MPI events. Third-parties may be given event attendee information for event coordination and offers related to the event.
