The Duneland Chamber of Commerce recognizes that in order to maintain a strong unified membership, the organization must conduct its affairs in a manner which will promote the interests of its membership without preference or prejudice. In order to accomplish this goal, the Chamber adopts the following statements:

1. It shall be the policy of the Duneland Chamber of Commerce to conduct its affairs with honesty and integrity. The Chamber shall endeavor to foster a competitive business climate among its membership and to avoid assisting any individual member from gaining unfair advantage of a competitive member.

2. When purchasing goods and services required for the operations of the organization, Chamber members shall have priority over non-members. If more than one member provides a required and acceptable product or service, preference shall be given to the member with the lowest price. If all things are equal, the purchase of products and services shall rotate among the membership.

3. When requested for information about the providers of products and services, Chamber members shall have priority over non-members. If more than one member provides the requested product or service, the Chamber shall furnish information about all of the member providers without preference or prejudice.

4. The Chamber office shall keep all information it may receive about the future plans of members and non-members confidential until such time as the affected individual or business elect to make the information public. In no instance should the Chamber assist one member to profit over another member from advance or insider business knowledge.
