Privacy Policy

Effective April 2021‎

The International Door Association (IDA) is committed to keeping your email address confidential. We ‎do not sell, rent or lease to third parties the emails of members, meeting attendees, magazine ‎subscriibers or anyone else with whom we conduct business.‎

In an effort to maintain efficient service while respecting the privacy of those who visit the IDA ‎website (Site) and correspond electronically with IDA, IDA has created and posted the following ‎privacy policy. This privacy policy is incorporated into and is a part of the Terms and Conditions of Use ‎of our Site.‎

SMS Policy

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This section details how we handle information you provide through our SMS program:

Use of Information

  • Purpose: We use your information to send mobile messages as necessary. This may involve sharing your information with platform providers, phone companies, and other vendors who assist in message delivery.
  • Protection of Information: We do not sell, rent, loan, trade, lease, or otherwise transfer for profit any phone numbers or customer information collected through the SMS program to any third party.
  • Disclosure: We may disclose your information if required by law, regulation, or governmental request, to avoid liability, or to protect our rights or property.

Choices and Controls

  • Consent: Consent to receive automated marketing text messages is not a condition of any purchase.
  • Opt-Out: You can opt out of receiving further text messages via the Messaging Service by responding to any of our text messages with any of the following replies: STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT.

Your Responsibilities

  • Accurate Information: Ensure that the information you provide is accurate, complete, and truthful. Do not use a false or misleading name or a name you are not authorized to use.
  • Consequences: If we believe the information provided is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or if you have joined the program for ulterior motives, we may deny you access to the program and take appropriate legal actions.

This SMS Privacy Policy is strictly limited to our SMS program and does not affect any other privacy policies that may govern your relationship with us in other contexts.

Mobile information will not be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Information Collection and Use

We will collect personally identifiable information that you provide to us, including, but not limited to, ‎your name, employer’s name, address(es), telephone and fax number, email address, and credit card ‎information. IDA may use and store such information in order to notify you of official IDA business; ‎provide a product or service you requested; secure your membership status; complete your online ‎donation; analyze, evaluate, and improve member and prospective member needs and interests; alert ‎you of IDA news, activities, courses and programs, services and benefits; and for other legitimate and ‎lawful business purposes. Personally identifiable information may be given to a third party in order to ‎complete a specific business transaction on behalf of IDA. Contact information from inquiries received ‎by IDA may be shared with IDA members to provide a service, satisfy a question, or develop a ‎prospective business relationship.‎

We may disclose personally identifiable information to the proper authorities if we become subject to ‎a subpoena or court order, or if we are otherwise legally required to disclose such information. We ‎also may use and disclose information about you to establish or exercise our legal rights, to enforce ‎the Terms and Conditions of Use, to assert and defend against legal claims, or if we believe such ‎disclosure is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding actual or suspected ‎illegal or fraudulent activities or potential threats to the physical safety or well-being of any person. If ‎all or part of IDA is merged or otherwise transferred to another entity, we may transfer the personally ‎identifiable information you provided to us to such entity as part of that transaction.‎

Registration and Order Forms

In order to enroll or register in a program; attend IDA events, meetings or conferences; or request ‎products or services; you may be required to fill out a registration or order form and provide personally ‎identifiable information which we will use to process your registration or order. In certain ‎circumstances, a program accessed through the Site may be jointly sponsored or co-sponsored with ‎other organizations and registration may or may not be handled by IDA. In such event, this privacy ‎policy will not apply – instead, such third-party’s privacy policy will be controlling. Please note that IDA ‎is not responsible for the privacy policies of these other organizations (or their use of your personally ‎identifiable or other information) and hereby disclaims any liability or responsibility in connection ‎therewith. In addition, your name and information may appear on registration or attendee lists ‎distributed at IDA events, meetings and conferences to other attendees and third parties. Please note ‎that IDA provides event sponsors and exhibitors with attendee names and postal addresses, not email ‎addresses. Attendees are granted access to a list of the names and institutions (including countries) of ‎other registered attendees.‎

However, while we employ reasonable security measures to protect ‎your personal information, please be aware that no method of electronic transmission is completely ‎infallible, and we cannot guarantee its absolute safety.
