If the IPA is to function efficiently and economically it is vital that we stay in touch with our Members and Candidates and others who are close to us. We use e-mail to enable you to participate in – where appropriate – IPA elections, Congresses and other scientific meetings, or to announce the Business Meeting which determines our corporate governance. Nevertheless, to comply with legislation in some jurisdictions we have to offer you the opportunity to opt out of receiving all e-mail messages from the IPA (which means you may well not be able to participate in elections, etc).
