The Clear Choice Network ("CCN") maintains this website to provide information and service to the public. In order to operate this website, we collect certain information about use of the site. We also allow users to send e-mail and submit other information to CCN. The purpose of this privacy policy is to let you know what information is collected, why it’s collected, how it’s used, and the extent to which the information may be disclosed to third parties.
What Information Does The Website Collect And How Do We Use The Information?
The website does not collect any personally identifiable information from you without your knowledge. We only collect personally identifiable information if you choose to identify yourself by sending us an e-mail or submitting other information to CCN. The only personally identifiable information we collect in those instances is the information that you voluntarily submit. This site does not send "cookies" to your computer, nor does it place or read any "third-party cookies" on your computer.
When you visit this website to browse or download information or link to another website, our server will collect a small amount of basic information in log files that enables us to identify operational problems and correct them. The information collected includes your browser type (e.g., Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer), your operating system (e.g., Microsoft Windows, Mac OS, Linux), and your IP address (a unique number assigned to a computer when the computer accesses the Internet). CCN personally monitors this information to ensure that the website is available for access to all users and to identify unauthorized attempts to use or alter or otherwise damage the website.
Will We Share Any Personally Identifiable Information with Other People or Agencies?
We collect personally identifiable information from you only if you voluntarily choose to send us an e-mail or submit other information to CCN. If you choose to send us an e-mail, we will use the information that you submit to respond to your inquiry or request. If you choose to submit other information by filling out a form that is on the CCN website, we will use the information for the purpose specified in the form. We may share the information that you submit with other governmental agencies, if doing so will assist us in responding to your inquiry or submission.
We will not otherwise disclose any information that you submit, unless we are required to do so by law. E-mails and other information that you send become public records when submitted to CCN. In some circumstances, CCN may be required to disclose the information in response to a public records request. In other limited circumstances, CCN may have a statutory obligation to disclose information that you provide or may be ordered to do so by a court of law.
Do I have a Choice Whether Personally Identifiable Information is Collected?
This website only collects personally identifiable information if you voluntarily choose to identify yourself by sending us an e-mail or other information. You are free to choose not to send us an e-mail or other information, if you do not want CCN to receive personally identifiable information from you.
Can I Review Personally Identifiable Information Pertaining to Me that May be in CCN's Records?
The Public Records Law gives you the right, with limited exceptions, to inspect any record containing personally identifiable information pertaining to you. You may submit a request to:

How Secure is the Information that I Send to CCN Through this website?
Any personally identifiable information obtained by or through this website is maintained on separate servers at CCN, protected from public access via the Internet. It is only available to the public, in any form, when appropriate for release pursuant to the Texas Public Records Act.
What Privacy Policy Applies When I Link From the CCN website to Another Site?
The CCN privacy policy applies only when you are on a CCN website. When you link from a CCN website to another website, the CCN privacy policy no longer applies; you are subject to the privacy policy of the other site.
What if This Policy Changes?
CCN will not implement any change to this privacy policy without first posting the changes on this website at least thirty (30) days in advance of making the change (unless otherwise required by law). If a change to this privacy policy is implemented, any information collected prior to the change will continue to be covered by this current policy (unless otherwise required by law).
