(a) Unless otherwise permitted by the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of a membership nonprofit corporation, a membership list or any part thereof may not be obtained or used by any person for any purpose unrelated to a member’s interest as a member without the consent of the board of directors, including without limitation:
(1) to solicit money or property unless the money or property will be used solely to solicit the votes of the members in an election to be held by the membership nonprofit corporation;
(2) for any commercial purpose; or
(3) to be sold or purchased by any person.
(b) Instead of making a membership list available for inspection and copying under this Division, a membership nonprofit corporation may elect to proceed under the procedures set forth in Section 10A-3A-7.20(e).
