Web Privacy Statement

Collecting and Using Personal Information

Welcome to City of High Point's websites. We appreciate your interest in us. When you visit and navigate our sites and when you communicate with us via our sites, we will not collect personal information about you unless you provide us that information voluntarily. Any non-public personal information that you may provide via our sites will be used solely for the purpose stated on the page where it is collected. The City of High Point will not sell, license, transmit or disclose this information outside of the City.

By “personal information,” we mean data that is unique to an individual, such as a name, address, Social Security number, e-mail address, or telephone number. From time to time, we may request personal information from you at our site in order to deliver requested materials to you, respond to your questions, or deliver a product or service.

Your E-Mail

We welcome your comments or questions about our websites and have provided e-mail boxes for that purpose. We will share your comments and questions with our customer service representatives and those employees most capable of addressing your questions and concerns.

Please note that your e-mail, like most, if not all, non-encrypted Internet e-mail communications, may be accessed and viewed by other Internet users, without your knowledge and permission, while in transit to us. For that reason, to protect your privacy, please do not use e-mail to communicate information to us that you consider confidential. If you wish, you may contact us instead via non-cellular telephone at the numbers provided at various locations on our sites.

There are some locations on City of High Point's website where we have made special provisions for a more secure environment in which we can exchange information with you. At each of these locations, we will provide you with appropriate instructions.

Linking to Other Sites

From time to time, City of High Point's websites may provide links to other websites, not owned or controlled by the City, that we think might be useful or of interest to you. We cannot, however, be responsible for the privacy practices used by other website owners or the content or accuracy of those other websites. Links to various non-City websites do not constitute or imply endorsement by the City of these websites, any products or services described on these sites, or of any other material contained in them.

The City of High Point has adopted and adheres to stringent security standards designed to protect non-public personal information at high-point.net against accidental or unauthorized access or disclosure. Among the safeguards that the City has developed for this site are administrative, physical and technical barriers that together form a protective firewall around the information stored at this site. We periodically subject our site to simulated intrusion tests and have developed comprehensive disaster recovery plans.
