Why must I provide personal information to join AUGI if membership is free?

Though AUGI is a volunteer organization and currently our basic operating costs are covered by our Autodesk sponsorship, additional money is needed to continue to bring the membership all the great services that are provided. Because we do not ask our members to pay dues, we raise funds by attracting sponsors who help offset costs.

We do not sell membership information. We do, however, use general statistics gained from membership demographics to justify our requests for money from sponsors and advertisers. In this way, members can continue to benefit from high-quality AUGI support and education programs at no cost.
