Hello...I'm a little confused and not sure if my interpetation is correct according to the GSDCA P&P...would a person as an elected member a the GSDCA Officer & Board member be in conflict if they hold a contracted paying position where they get paid monthly by the GSDCA according to the following that is page 11 of the P&P...

Thank you for any education that you can give on this matter.

GSDCA Board - Financial Conflict Of Interest/Full Disclosure
It is the policy of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America that all members of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America Board of Directors will avoid any conflict between their interests, direct or indirect, and those of the GSDCA or any organization affiliated with the GSDCA. The fundamental principle guiding implementation of this policy is that no board member who represents or has any direct or indirect interest in any company, organization, institution or any other entity shall participate in any decision when that entity does or seeks to do business with the GSDCA. Furthermore, any board member whose immediate household members or immediate family members represents or have an indirect or indirect interest in any of the above business entities will also be prohibited from participating in any decision involving that entity. Board members in such situations, either personally or through association with household and/or family members, will reveal their interest, making full disclosure of the same, or leave the room during any discussion period concerning the entity and transaction involved. Board members will also abstain from voting on any matters pertaining to such entity. Further, in pursuance of this policy, all board members will sign a disclosure statement annually at the January board meeting.
Direct and indirect interest will include, but not limited to, monetary investment or gains, partnerships, business affiliation, association, representation or consultancy with such interest resulting in payment or receipt of any remuneration or reward, case or in kind; direct or indirectly.
