PRIVACY POLICY
The Intermountain Volleyball Association collects and uses information from our members we obtain for the purpose of educating and informing our members about services and opportunities existing with their membership. We do not share or disclose or share information to others or third party groups or organizations.
ANTI-HARASSMENT POLICY
USA Volleyball and the Regional Volleyball Association’s policies prohibiting misconduct shall be
the same as the applicable policies of the US Center for Safesport. It is the policy of USA Volleyball and the Regional Volleyball Associations that there shall be no form of harassment directed at any participant by any coach, official, director, employee, parent, volunteer, independent contractor, support staff, or other participant. The Intermountain Region prohibits all forms of unlawful harassment, which includes harassment on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age and any other protected status, in accordance with the requirements of all applicable federal, state and local laws.
The full harassment policy applicable to members of the Intermountain Region can be found in the USA Volleyball (USAV) Safesport Handbook. Further information can be found in the United States Olympic and Paralympic (USOPC) Safesport Code (Article IX, Section D-5).
WHISTLEBLOWER POLICY
The Intermountain Region operates on an Open Door Policy where members are encouraged to bring forth any complaints or issues to the Executive Director. If questions or problems involve the Executive Director, employees may contact the President of the Board of Directors. We take all concerns and problems brought to its attention seriously, and will work to resolve the issue or problem as soon as possible under the circumstances. Intentionally filing a false, misleading, or malicious report is not tolerated.
For Clubs, Players, Parents the Intermountain Region clubs operate as independent businesses and are classified in many different ways, including as for-profit and nonprofit entities. The Federal Whistleblower law offers protection to employees of these clubs, and matters within a club should be handled by that
business entity. Intermountain Region does not get involved in financial or policy disputes for clubs.
For Region-policy ethics violations, we have a complaint process on our
website.
The Region has the power to sanction individual members for code of conduct violations but
may not be able to guarantee full protections for whistleblowers, because we cannot make
decisions on behalf of individual clubs to retain employees or contractors. Employees,
contractors, or other individuals associated with clubs should contact the appropriate state
agency to determine what protections are available to them.
Parents and players who have complaints with individual clubs are encouraged to bring those
complaints to their club directors first. Individuals may also utilize the grievance process on our website referenced above by contacting the Region office at: info@imvolleyball.org The Intermountain Region does not get involved in financial or policy disputes
for clubs.
All members are subject to provisions in the various administrative documents within USA
Volleyball, including the USA Volleyball Code of Conduct.
