In addition, all mass emails through the CASPR website will include information that identifies the sender and enables the recipient to withdraw consent in accordance with CASL.\u00a0 All mass emails will include an opt out option at the bottom of the message with a link.<\/p>\n Members also have the option to have their name published on the CASPR public website.\u00a0 Members will be asked permission when they join the association to have their names included on the online directory.\u00a0 Members who do not wish to have their names included on the public website will not be included in this feature.\u00a0<\/strong> Advocacy partnerships are an invaluable tool in the fulfilment of CASPR\u2019s mandate.\u00a0 CASPR may work with organizations where there are common values and objectives, and where policy development and advocacy on CASPR\u2019s key priorities can be achieved.\u00a0 CASPR will not provide any financial support to advocacy partners.<\/p>\n All CASPR advocacy partnerships require a formal declaration of intent to become a partner.\u00a0 All partners will be listed on the CASPR website.\u00a0 In turn, CASPR must be listed as a partner on the organization\u2019s website.<\/p>\n The CASPR Executive will take the lead in receiving and developing knowledge of and interest in advocacy partnership requests.\u00a0 The CASPR Executive Chair whose portfolio is most relevant to the proposed partnership will take the lead. Consultation will take place amongst the Executive. \u00a0Consideration will be given to:<\/p>\n Board approval is needed before CASPR will agree to enter into any advocacy partnerships.<\/p>\n Examples of advocacy partnerships may include: Canadian Medical Association, Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada, and Health Canada.<\/p>\n Solidarity partnerships are characterized by mutually common interests and issues.\u00a0 Through collaborating in solidarity partnerships, CASPR increases its capacity to address the association\u2019s key mission, goals, and values.<\/p>\n Solidarity partners could be Canadian, North American, or overseas partners.\u00a0 Organizations whose identities lend themselves to solidarity relationships or networks and coalitions with which CASPR has a close association will be considered.\u00a0 Some of these partners have had a long historical relationship with CASPR.<\/p>\n CASPR will provide no funding to these organizations nor is there a requirement for CASPR to become a member.\u00a0 CASPR\u2019s relationship with these organizations may result in joint work, requests from the partner, advocacy work, or visits and exchanges based on similar mandates.<\/p>\n The CASPR Executive must receive and approve all requests for entering into a longer-term solidarity relationship with partners, networks, or coalitions.\u00a0 All solidarity relationships will be listed on the CASPR website.\u00a0 CASPR will only enter into solidarity relationships with not-for-profit organizations in compliance with the association\u2019s vision, mission, and values.<\/p>\n An example of a solidarity partnership is the Association of Staff Physician Recruiters (ASPR), our USA counterparts.<\/p>\n Please note, CASPR sponsors are not considered partners.\u00a0 CASPR<\/em>\u02bc<\/em>s policy is not to endorse any advertiser. Therefore, publication of advertisements and\/or sponsorship does not constitute an endorsement.\u00a0 For more information, please visit the CASPR Sponsorship Guide (link). There may be cases where partners will sponsor CASPR in order to further a project or specific objective that does not directly benefit CASPR.<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong> The CASPR logo is the official mark of the organization.\u00a0 The CASPR logo may be used by individuals and committees for official CASPR business.\u00a0 External organizations authorized by the association for the purposes outlined in this policy may also be permitted to use the logo.\u00a0 Intended usage includes:<\/p>\n Digital files are available via the Communications Chair (communications@caspr.ca<\/a>).<\/p>\n The CASPR logo consists of a maple leaf and stethoscope. The maple leaf is meant to represent Canada, the stethoscope represents physician recruitment.\u00a0 The logo may include the association\u2019s name, \u201cCanadian Association of Staff Physician Recruiters\u201d.\u00a0 The digital logo should always be published in burgundy (CASPR\u2019s official colour) or white with a burgundy background.\u00a0 Logos that are printed may be in black or grey. Enlarging and reducing the logo must be undertaken using proportional scaling only, in order to maintain the original proportions of the logo.<\/p>\n All CASPR Executive members can assume a general use authorization; this authorization extends to CASPR committee members.<\/p>\n CASPR Sponsors and Partners are permitted to use the CASPR logo\/trademarks in certain situations.\u00a0 However, use must be approved prior to publishing.\u00a0 Requests to use the logo for other communications are granted on a case-by-case basis.\u00a0 All identity policies and standards apply.\u00a0 Please contact the Communications Chair (communications@caspr.ca<\/a>) for written authorization.\u00a0 When using the logo in an electronic format, please ensure that it is linked to the CASPR website (www.caspr.ca<\/a>).<\/p>\n Personal business cards or websites are not permitted to display the CASPR logo, nor may such pages use the association\u2019s name in a manner that would lead the reader to perceive that the website is an official CASPR website.\u00a0 The CASPR logo may not be used on any commercial product or publication that directly or implicitly conveys that the content is authorized or associated with the organization, without the express written permission of the organization.\u00a0 This includes, but is not limited to, placing the official logo on any article, book, software, or any other publication or product offered by a member. Official communication from CASPR must be printed on the CASPR letterhead.\u00a0 In addition, all communication being sent from CASPR (Chairs or Committees) must receive prior Board approval.\u00a0 When communication to the membership is needed by the association, the Chair will endeavour to include the information in the CASPR Connection Newsletter rather than sending a mass email when and where possible.
