The foundation has specifically identified the following areas in its policy to be potential conflicts of interest: financial interest, outside employment, acceptance of gifts, gratuities, business courtesies, travel, lodging and entertainment, misuse of resources or assets, personal gain using undue influence, direct dealings with vendors, use of confidential information, and an individual's support of political causes.

These disclosures are reviewed by management and the board as necessary.”
