Privacy
The Internet contains a wealth of information. It may contain personal details about you that you do not want everyone to know. For example, your real name, street address, phone number or e-mail address that you provide us so that we can respond to your request for information or service.

The Town of Rimbey is strongly committed to protecting the privacy of its user community. The intent of this privacy policy is to clarify what information may be obtained about users of the Town of Rimbey website, how this information is used and our disclosure practices. Please note that this information may be updated at any time in order to address new issues and reflect changes on our website. We will post those changes here as they occur, so you will always be aware of our current policies. This privacy policy applies only to the Town of Rimbey's website and not to other community, company or organization sites to which we provide links.

When you voluntarily send us electronic mail or complete an electronic form that includes identifying information about you, we will keep a record of this information so that we can respond to you. Collected personal information will only be used by authorized Town of Rimbey staff to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally collected or for a use consistent with that purpose. However, be assured that the Site Owner will not disclose your personal information to third parties without your consent or as authorized by law.

Site Usage Information
Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and an IP (Internet Protocol) address, containing a set of numbers. This information reveals nothing personal about the visitor.

When a visitor requests a page from within the Town of Rimbey's website, our web servers automatically recognize that computers' IP address and domain name. Such data is used in the aggregate to help determine general usage patterns and fine tune layout patterns to ensure our site is as "User Friendly" as possible. This information is not collected or evaluated for individuals and our web servers do not automatically record e-mail addresses.

The Site Owner will share aggregate information about our users; for example, we will say that X number of users visited our transit pages in the past month or X% of users were searching for information about snow removal services.
