Donor List Use Policy
The Maine Public Broadcasting
Network maintains lists of names, addresses, giving history,
programming interests and other pertinent data for those who have
supported
us financially or otherwise have indicated an interest in our organization's
programming or activities.
As policy, the Maine Public Broadcasting Network does not sell or exchange
its list with any other organization. On occasion, the Maine Public Broadcasting
Network provides its list to vendors who conduct work for Maine Public
Broadcasting Network or conduct an activity for the benefit of the Maine
Public Broadcasting Network. Vendors are required to maintain the
confidentiality of the Maine Public Broadcasting Network's files and
to adhere to a policy of not exchanging, selling, or otherwise disclosing
the organization's lists.
When renting outside mailing lists, the Maine Public Broadcasting Network
will not rent or buy names from political candidates, partisan political
organizations or organizations that spend a substantial amount of
their time lobbying. Lists will not be rented from organizations
whose purpose or reputation would damage the goodwill and trust between
the organization and its viewers and listeners.
It is the Maine Public Broadcasting Network's intention to retain the
trust of its donors, viewers and listeners through this policy. This
policy exceeds that outlined in the Consolidated Appropriations Act
for FY2000 for public broadcasting's federal appropriation.
