Oklahoma County Web Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting the Oklahoma County web site and reviewing
our privacy policy. We will collect no personal information
about you unless the information is voluntarily provided by you.
Information Collected Automatically
Through the use of powerful online tools available on our
web site, Oklahoma County is committed to providing the public
with an enjoyable online experience. While providing this service
we are also committed to protecting users from the unexpected
use of personally identifiable information. In an effort to

Oklahoma County uses server log analysis tools to track web
site usage. These monthly summaries provide statistics such
as:
- Number of hits

- Technical statistics
- Referrers and keywords
- Browsers and platforms
Information Provided by You
Visitors have the option to voluntarily provide
Oklahoma County with additional information through the Oklahoma
County web site. Oklahoma County will retain information volunteered
by the user, such as e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, registration
information, etc. This will be used by the county as a
means to communicate with the user if appropriate, and will only
be shared with other government agencies if your inquiry relates
to that agency or as otherwise required by law. This information
will not be shared with outside commercial entities.
If during your visit to our web site you participate
by completing and submitting an online form or survey or send
an e-mail message, the following additional information will be collected:
- The email address and contents of the e-mail, for those who communicate with us via e-mail.
- Information volunteered in response to a survey.
- Information volunteered through an online form for any other purpose.
The information collected is not limited to text characters and may include
audio, video, and graphic information formats that you send
us.
Users are cautioned that the collection
of personal information requested or volunteered by children
online or by e-mail will be treated the same as information
given by an adult and may be subject to public access. If
we discover or are otherwise notified that we have received
any such information from a child in violation of this policy,
we will delete that information. If you believe that Oklahoma
County has collected information from or about a child under
the age of thirteen, please contact us immediately.
