“It is the policy of the board of directors of aapos that its directors disclose and, depending on the circumstances, avoid any and all conflicts of interest. A director has a conflict of interest when he/she or a member of his/her family has a relationship with or an interest in another entity that does business with aapos or is a competitor of aapos. The conflict of interest policy is implemented and enforced so as to prevent the judgment of the board from being influenced by an economic relationship in which a director or his/her family is personally involved. Directors satisfy two obligations in regards to this conflict of interest policy: (1) ascertaining and disclosing their own and their family's conflicts, and (2) determining whether another involved person should participate in deliberations and/or voting on an issue with respect to which he/she has a conflict. A director will disclose any conflict at board meetings and recuse themselves if such conflict exists. To accomplish and fulfill this policy, all directors annually submit a disclosure statement, and are responsible for updating the statement if changes occur during the year.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
