Ordering Publications
The State of Wyoming does not collect information about you unless you voluntarily participate in an activity that asks for such information. The information requested and supplied by you through the web, is the same information requested if performed over the telephone, by mail, or in person. When you provide your name, address, email address and other personal information, we use the information in order to provide the requested publications. If and only if you do not explicitly grant us permission, we do sometimes release non-financial information to Wyoming travel-related businesses. If you do not grant such permission, then your information will not be shared with any third-party organizations.
Kids' Page
We at the State of Wyoming are especially concerned about protecting children's privacy. We hope parents and teachers are involved in children's Internet explorations. It is particularly important for parents to guide their children when children are asked to provide personal information on line. We specifically ask children to get their parents' permission before providing any information on line, at our site or any other site, and hope parents will always be involved in those decisions. Most importantly, when children do provide information through the State of Wyoming Web site, it is only used to enable us to respond to the writer, and not to create profiles of children.
Security
Miles Media Group, our third-party Interactive and Web hosting vendor, as developer and manager of these Web sites, has taken several steps to safeguard the integrity of its data, computer systems and networks. These measures are designed and intended to prevent corruption of data, block unknown or unauthorized access to our systems and information, and to provide reasonable protection of private information in our possession. Including, but not limited to, individual authentication, the security of transmitted data, security monitoring, auditing and encryption implementation and day-to-day practices of the entire Web site. Email is not a secure medium. Credit card information is never stored.
USA 800, our third-party fulfillment house for publication orders, filters the data for the credit card purchases on our website, and as such has also taken steps to safeguard the integrity of its data, computer systems and networks. This information is never released to any other party.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
