2. Scope
This policy applies to all SBAA members seeking or receiving B2B introductions facilitated by the SBAA.

4.1. No member contact information will be shared with other members or third parties without the expressed consent of all parties involved.
4.2. If a member wishes to be introduced to another member or a third party, they must request the introduction through the SBAA. The SBAA will then seek consent from the other party before facilitating the introduction.
5. Confidentiality and Privacy
5.1. The SBAA is committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of its members. Any information provided by members in the context of B2B introductions will be handled with the utmost care and only used for the intended purpose.
