The City of Amarillo respects the privacy and confidentiality of individuals who visit the PantexEPZ City website located at www.PantexEPZ.com, and its subdomains. This Privacy Policy is strictly maintained to help you understand the commitment to safeguard the privacy of the information you provide to the website and is subject to change.

The City reserves the right to take any action the City deems prudent or necessary to safeguard the website and your information in the City systems and databases from malicious or unwarranted attack by viruses, hackers, or other miscreants.

We do not sell, lease, exchange or disclose your personally identifiable information with Third Party, non-affiliated persons other than its sponsors or partners, unless it is required by law or disclosure is necessary to those persons that operate these websites (“operational providers”).

Your Consent

By using the website, you consent to the collection and use of the above-described information by the City and contracted Third Parties.

Collection of Your Personal Information

Our mission is to provide you with personalized services and offerings designed to enhance your experience. To do so effectively, the following information is collected:

(a) Personally Identifiable Information: The City, through the use of the city website, only collects personally identifiable information about you when you voluntarily provide such personally identifiable information when using its website. If you do not wish your personally identifiable information to be collected, please do not submit it.

(b) Information from the use of “cookies”: The website employs “cookie” technology. Cookies are small pieces of data stored in files on your computer allowing the website to track your usage as you visit and revisit the website. The use of cookies by the website complies with generally accepted programming standards and practices. Please note that you can choose to block the use of cookies through settings in your web browser, but be advised that certain features of the website may not work properly without them.

Use of Personal Information It is the policy of the City to not sell, share, transfer, or rent to Third Parties any information you provide through the use of the website, without your written consent, except as required by operation of the law or in compliance with legal authorities; provided, however the City may share your personal information with certain Third Parties (“Target Third Parties”) without your written consent in order to further the purpose for which you voluntarily provide the information. Additionally, Third Party information management service providers are engaged to help maintain efficient operations, improve services, advertising and carry out obligations. Because such information management service providers may access, such information management service providers may have access to your information. The city makes reasonable attempts to protect and preserve the ownership of information maintained about you within the city systems and databases by entering into agreements which retain ownership of the information and require these information management service providers to sign confidentiality agreements regarding the information found in the city systems. The City cannot, however, ensure the compliance with these agreements, nor the protection of such information in the hands of Parties other than the City.

The City will not sell, exchange, rent, lease or otherwise disclose your personal information to other Third-Party marketers or any such persons that are not associated with the City as advertisers unless it is necessary to: 1) conform to regulatory and legal requirements or to comply with legal process; 2) to protect the safety and security of its users, employees, or property; 3) to defend the rights of the website; or 4) to enforce the Terms of Use Agreement. This protects the safety of the City’s visitors, employees and property. The city also expects its operational providers to protect your privacy.

Website Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Personal Information

Generally, you may browse this website without providing any personal information. For certain activities (such as event vendor applications, surveys, event alerts, or volunteer registrations) the personal information you voluntarily provide may include your first, middle and last names, home address, email address, telephone number, and mobile phone/text messaging device number, and gender, personal preferences, depending on the activity. Unless stated otherwise, the city does not request contact information for a mobile phone, text messaging or any wireless device that includes a domain name address (such as “.net” or “.com”) as part of the contact information. Federal law prohibits the sending of commercial email messages directly to a wireless device that uses a domain name, unless you have first given your affirmative consent. The city may inadvertently collect a wireless device number that includes a domain name when you send it an inquiry. However, the city will not knowingly use that contact information. The City reserves the right to respond to user inquiries or requests sent via a wireless device that uses a domain name as such messages are not deemed to be commercial email and therefore, are not regulated by Federal law. However, when “computer to phone” commercial emails are prohibited by law, the city may reject your wireless device contact information when such information is submitted for certain website features or services. The city will attempt to notify you if it will need new contact information. The City will not request a type of confidential personally identifiable information which shall be called “Sensitive Personal Information” and is defined as any individual’s: (1) social security number; (2) driver’s license number or state identification card number; or (3) account number, credit or debit card number, in combination with any required security code, access code or password that would permit access to an individual’s financial account.

Cookies and Image Tags Tracking

Without disclosure of personal information about individual users, the city may provide aggregate statistics about its users, traffic patterns and related website information to reputable Third-Party vendors.

Security

Please keep in mind, however, that no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
