Thank you for visiting Buckeyeaz.gov and reviewing our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. The city of Buckeye takes your privacy seriously. This policy is designed to let you know what information the city collects, why we collect it, how we use the information and who to contact with questions.

Privacy

If you send us an electronic mail message with a question or comment that contains personally identifying information, or fill out a form that e-mails us this information, we will only use the personally identifiable information to respond to your request and analyze trends. We may redirect your message to another government agency or person who is in a better position to answer your question.

We collect some information that is used for analysis and statistical purposes that help us manage the city of Buckeye's website.

Information for statistical purposes

We automatically collect electronically generated information about your visit to our site, such as the date, type of browser used and technical internet protocol data. We collect this information about each user session from our user logs, and refer to it in summary form for statistical purposes.

Information that you provide us

This information may include such things as name, address, telephone number and other personal and business data, depending on the particular service you use. We collect only that data necessary to provide the service that you are requesting.

Control of personal information

At any time, while accessing our site, any user, while online, may decline participation in any activity that asks for information (i.e. survey, e-mail or e-forms). Your choice not to participate will in no way affect your ability to use any other feature on our site. In online applications that ask for personal information, you also are provided the option of canceling or "clearing all fields" of information and terminating the application.

Use of cookies

This website uses cookies for statistical purposes and, in some web-based applications, to track user activity. These are not used to collect personal information, to access your computer files or to gain control of your computer in any way. If your browser has the option of accepting cookies turned off, you may find access to some city web services affected.

What are cookies?

Cookies are text files, stored on your computer, that are used by web servers to store information about you as a user of that website. Cookies are unique to each website and information in them cannot be accessed by other websites. There are two types of cookies: persistent and temporary. The difference between them is lifespan.

A persistent cookie is one that is stored on your computer until you or your browser software delete it.

A temporary cookie is only available and active while you are on the website. Once you close your browser or leave the city's website, the cookie is disabled and a new one is created the next time you visit.

Cookies allow us to track which content and services are accessed most and help us improve the services we offer.

Third-party cookies

Some features on our website rely on data from third party websites such as Twitter, Facebook, Google, YouTube and other companies. Pages with this embedded content may present cookies from these websites over which the city of Buckeye has no control. Third parties may use these cookies to collect and use information about an end user's visits in connection with the delivery of advertisements. Please review the relevant third party websites for more information about how these cookies are controlled.

Disclosure to third parties

As a governmental agency, we are governed by public records laws. Any information that we receive through use of our site is subject to the same provisions as information provided on paper. Otherwise, we do not share personal identifying information with any third party without your permission. We disclose only in aggregate form our statistical analyses or demographics of users to third parties. This information is not reported or used in any manner that would reveal personally identifiable information, and will not be released to any outside parties unless we are legally required to do so in connection with law enforcement investigations or other legal proceedings.

If you believe that the city of Buckeye is using your personally identifiable information for a purpose other than outlined in this privacy statement, you may contact us at webmaster@buckeyeaz.gov.
