Why Acceptable Use Policies Matter

Without written expectations, enforcement is impossible and liability is unlimited.

No Defined Boundaries

Can staff use work email for personal use? Can volunteers install software? Can board members store documents on personal devices? Without policies, the answer is unclear.

Liability Without Policies

If a staff member misuses technology and there's no policy, your nonprofit has limited recourse.
