National Association of State Procurement Officials, Inc. (“NASPO”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through compliance with this Privacy Policy (the “Policy”). NASPO has adopted this policy to govern the process of personal data collection and information sharing. This Policy explains how NASPO may collect, use, share, and safeguard personal information on www.NASPO.org, the NASPO Procurement University Learning Management System site, and any mobile websites, mobile applications, social media sites, events and any other services and platforms officially operated or used by NASPO from time to time (the “Sites” or “Services”).
This Privacy Policy consists of both this Privacy Policy, and where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Privacy Notice. If you are a resident of a country located in the European Union, or the European Economic Area, including Switzerland and the United Kingdom, please refer to our GDPR Privacy Notice (page 7) for more information about your rights and our obligations.

NASPO Privacy Policy and General Data Protection Regulation Privacy Notice

This General Data Protection Regulation Privacy Notice is a supplement to the NASPO Privacy Policy and concerns certain personal data it has collected about residents of the countries in the European Union, consisting of the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and to the extent that the United Kingdom is no longer a member of the European Economic Area, and the United Kingdom. It explains why NASPO has personal information, how the organization uses it and handles it, and individual&#8217;s rights to that information, all as required by the European Union&#8217;s General Data Protection Regulation (&#8220;GDPR&#8221;).

Introduction

As outlined in NASPO&#8217;s Privacy Policy, NASPO may collect personal contact information such as name, email address, phone number, gender, birthdate, and country of residence.
NASPO may receive information about individuals from its vendors or affiliates, such as personal contact information including name, email address, phone number, and country of residence. This information may be received in the context of providing servicing and support to our customers.

Personal Information Collected

NASPO may collect personal data when individuals ask NASPO to contact them, register with NASPO to participate in an event or training session, or when individuals request information products or services from NASPO. Failure to provide this information means NASPO cannot fulfill the request for information. NASPO may also collect contact information when it is provided by using the NASPO Website, as well as the IP address and other information about the activity on the NASPO Website, such as visited pages. NASPO may also receive personal data when working on resolving customers&#8217; problems.

Data Collection

NASPO’s lawful basis for holding your information depends on the circumstances under which it is acquired.

Purpose of Personal Data

Customer and prospective customer contact information collected in connection with a request for products/services or an inquiry, or for fulfillment of an unsolicited request.
Member and prospective member contact information collected for use in marketing additional products and services.
Contact information is collected for use in soliciting participating in NASPO events, training sessions or projects (e.g. research).

Type of Information - Lawful Basis for Processing

NASPO uses personal data to communicate by email or phone regarding situations such as requesting services from individuals, informing individuals of our services, informing individuals on the status of their request, informing individuals on the status of their payment, or answering questions about payment of their invoice. NASPO may also collect IP address and details concerning activity while on the NASPO Website in order to secure NASPO systems and understand your interests and preferences.
The personal data NASPO holds is stored and processed securely as described in the NASPO Privacy Policy and in line with the information security measures and guidance standards. NASPO has implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of your personal data, taking into account the level of risk associated with the processing of personal data.
If NASPO receives personal data in the context of providing problem-solving services to our customers, NASPO will securely accept that data and limit access to the data. When requested, NASPO will delete the data once the issue is resolved.

Use of Personal Data

Personal data will be stored at our servers located in the United States. The United States has personal data privacy laws that are different from your country. NASPO does not pass your information to anyone else apart from its business services partners as described in the NASPO Privacy Policy.

 Cross Border Personal Information Data Transfers

NASPO will retain member personal data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice and in accordance with its Data Document Retention Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Data Retention

Individuals have the following rights concerning their personal data that NASPO holds and processes that can be exercised at any time:
<ul>
<li>Right of access – you have the right to request a copy of the information that NASPO holds about you.</li>
<li>Right of rectification – you have a right to correct personal data that NASPO holds about you that is inaccurate or incomplete.</li>
<li>Right to be forgotten – in certain circumstances, you can ask for the personal data NASPO holds about you to be erased from our records.</li>
<li>Right to restriction of processing – where certain conditions apply, you can restrict the processing of the personal data NASPO holds about you.</li>
<li>Right of portability – you have the right to have the personal data NASPO holds about you transferred to another organization.</li>
<li>Right to object – you have the right to object to certain types of processing, such as direct marketing.</li>
<li>Right to judicial review: in the event that NASPO refuses your request under rights of access, NASPO will provide you with a reason as to why. You have the right to complain as outlined in the process below.</li>
</ul>
All of the above requests will be forwarded on to other parties holding and processing your personal data where appropriate.

NASPO Contact Information 

NASPO typically collects two kinds of information about individuals: (a) information that individuals provide that personally identifies them; and (b) information that does not personally identify an individual that NASPO automatically collects when individuals visit the NASPO Sites or that individuals provide to NASPO.
(1) Personal Information/Personally Identifiable Information (PII): As a general policy, NASPO does not automatically collect Personal Information when visiting the website. Personal Information means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Specifically, Personal Information consists of individual’s name, postal address, email address, date of birth, driver’s license number, financial account information, preferences, interests, favorites, or other similar information. NASPO may request, collect, or otherwise provide individuals with an opportunity to submit Personal Information in connection with certain activities on the NASPO website, including but not limited to:
<ul>
<li>Registration screens and online forms</li>
<li>Participation in a survey or questionnaire</li>
<li>Membership applications</li>
<li>Participation in the NASPO Network or similar NASPO provided on-line service, community or message board</li>
<li>Participation in NASPO provided or sponsored events and training</li>
</ul>
This definition of “Personal Information” means personally identifiable information and includes any information that may be used to specifically identify or contact you, such as your name, address (mailing or email), phone number, etc.
Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through NASPO.org public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.
(2) Non-Personal Information: Non-personal information is any information that does not personally identify you. Non-personal information can include certain personal information that has been de-identified; that is, information that has been rendered anonymous. NASPO may obtain non-personal information about members from information provided to NASPO, either separately or together with Personal Information. NASPO also automatically collects certain non-personal information from individuals when accessing the website. This information can include, among other things, IP addresses, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, etc.), the third-party website from which your visit originated, the operating system you are using, the search terms you use on our website, the specific web pages you visit, and the duration of your visits.

Information Collected

NASPO uses the Personal Information individuals submit to:
<ul>
<li>Operate the websites</li>
<li>Respond to member requests</li>
<li>Deliver products or services members requested</li>
<li>Accept payment for products or services members requested</li>
<li>Process membership applications Contact individuals via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current products/services, or of potential new products/services that may be offered</li>
<li>Provide input on your particular needs to our staff to make current and planned initiatives increasingly relevant to your needs</li>
<li>Facilitate data analysis by NASPO in the execution of any business functions provided by NASPO in order to improve our business processes, products/services, events, training and to provide you more meaningful interactions with NASPO and the sites.</li>
<li>Provide future service and support</li>
<li>Inform individuals of other products or services available from NASPO or its affiliates</li>
<li>Secure lodging, transportation and other services associated with NASPO provided or sponsored event or training</li>
<li>Notify event/training participants about event information such as reminders, updates, logistic changes and post event satisfaction data collection</li>
<li>Capture event emergency contact information (name, phone number, relationship) to identify designated individuals in case of an emergency or crisis situation</li>
<li>Capture ADA and dietary preferences/needs to share with event staff and vendors</li>
<li>Participate in the NASPO Network or similar NASPO provided on-line service, community or message board</li>
<li>Participate in NASPO provided or sponsored events and training</li>
</ul>
NASPO uses non-personal information in a variety of ways, including to help analyze site traffic to determine which pages within the sites are the most popular and to understand customer needs and trends, carry out targeted promotional activities, and to improve services offered to individuals. This data may be used to deliver customized content and advertising within NASPO to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area. NASPO may use your non-personal information by itself or aggregate it with information it has obtained from others. NASPO may share your non-personal information with our affiliated companies and third parties to achieve these objectives and others: this aggregate information is anonymous information that does not personally identify you.

Use of Personal and Non-Personal Information

NASPO automatically receives and stores certain types of non-personal information whenever members interact with NASPO. For example, like many websites, NASPO uses &#8220;cookies&#8221; and &#8220;web beacons&#8221; (also called “clear gifs” or “pixel tags”) to obtain certain types of information when member web browsers access the NASPO websites. &#8220;Cookies&#8221; are small files that are transferred to your computer&#8217;s hard drive or your Web browser memory to enable NASPO systems to recognize your browser and to provide convenience and other features to you, such as recognizing you as a frequent user of the NASPO website. This activity simplifies the process of recording member personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so forth. When members return to the same NASPO site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so individuals can easily use the NASPO site features that they customized.
Individuals have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but individuals can usually modify their browser setting to decline cookies if preferred. If individuals choose to decline cookies, they may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Sites’ services. For more detailed information about cookies, you may wish to visit <a href="https://www.allaboutcookies.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.allaboutcookies.org</a>.
&#8220;Web beacons&#8221; are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and may be used to track the online movements of users, when an email has been opened, and to provide other information.
Examples of the information NASPO collects and analyzes in this manner include the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform; your behavior on our Website, including the URL you come from and go to next (whether this URL is on the NASPO site or not); and cookie number.

“Cookies” and Web Beacons

NASPO takes steps it considers reasonable to protect Personal Information collected via the Sites from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. NASPO secures the information on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When Personal Information (such as credit card number) is transmitted to other web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. Keep in mind, however, that despite such reasonable safeguards, NASPO cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to NASPO online and are not responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your Personal Information.
In addition, other Internet sites or services that may be accessible through NASPO websites have separate data and privacy practices independent of NASPO, and therefore NASPO disclaims any responsibility or liability for their policies or actions. Please contact those vendors and others directly if you have any questions about their privacy policies.

NASPO Security Measures

NASPO does not sell, rent or lease collected Personal Information to third parties. NASPO may, from time to time, contact individuals on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest. In those cases, Personal Information (such as e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, NASPO may share data with trusted partners to perform services on our behalf, to help NASPO perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your Personal Information except to provide these services to or on behalf of NASPO, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.
NASPO does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.
NASPO may contract with sub-contractors to provide administration of some business functions and conference/event related services. NASPO may share Personal Information collected for said purposes in the execution of the services provided.
Specific examples of the data required for full delivery on conference-related services are:
<ul>
<li>ADA needs and dietary preferences/needs shared event staff, the conference hotel as well as off-site restaurants, caterers, vendors or venues providing services to the conference</li>
<li>Contact information (name, selected preferences) to confirm your rooming needs and your reservation at the conference hotel</li>
<li>Contact information (name, selected preferences) used to confirm travel or transportation arrangements, where appropriate</li>
<li>Contact information (name, phone number, credentials/designation, place of employment, mailing address, email address) to share with event attendees to facilitate peer-to-peer communications</li>
<li>Emergency Contact information (name, phone number, relationship) used only to communicate with designated individuals in case of an emergency or crisis situation</li>
</ul>

Information Sharing

NASPO may share your email contact information with its partners to assist in providing email communications. Individuals may unsubscribe from receiving these communications from NASPO by clicking the &#8220;unsubscribe&#8221; link included at the bottom of the email, or by emailing NASPO as provided in the “Contact Information” section below. However, NASPO reserves the right to send individuals transactional emails such as customer service communications in connection with the products or services it provides, or individuals have purchased from NASPO. For security reasons, individuals should not send Personal Information, such as passwords, social security numbers, credit card information, or bank account information to NASPO via email.

Email Communications

NASPO does not provide Personal Information to third parties, except as described above. However, as NASPO continues to develop its business, NASPO trusted partners and/or contracted third parties as described above may change due to changes in contractual relationships or they may undergo a merger, reorganization or similar corporate event which may necessitate transitioning of the personal information shared by NASPO to the new/changed organization.

Transfer of Assets

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, NASPO reserves the right to disclose any information about individuals if required to do so by law, with respect to copyright and other intellectual property infringement claims, or if NASPO believes that such action is necessary to: (a) fulfill a government request; (b) conform with the requirements of the law or legal process; (c) protect or defend NASPO’s legal rights or property, or Sites; or (d) in an emergency to protect the health and safety of NASPO Sites’ users or the general public.

Legal Necessity

BY VISITING THE SITES, INDIVIDUALS ARE ACCEPTING THE POLICIES THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND CONSENTING TO THE COLLECTION AND USE OF INFORMATION BY NASPO. NASPO WILL POST ANY CHANGES TO THIS POLICY IT MAY MAKE FROM TIME TO TIME ON ITS SITES. IF INDIVIDUALS DO NOT AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, OR TO ANY CHANGES NASPO MAY SUBSEQUENTLY MAKE, IMMEDIATELY STOP ACCESSING THE SITES.

Individual Consent
