This document describes Wauwatosa’s policy regarding personal information, site security, communication and site usage of Wauwatosa.net and all other sites operated by Wauwatosa. Use of the website signifies your agreement to the terms and conditions of use set forth in this document. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not access or otherwise use this website.

Collection of Personal Information

We at Wauwatosa respect your privacy. On occasion, we ask for personal data on this website. The information is used to fulfill requests such as brochures by mail or to use special features of the site such as the media gallery. By voluntarily providing personal information, you are consenting to the collection and use of your personal information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

You may choose not to use any service that requires the use of your personal information in a manner not described in this Privacy Policy. Your use of Wauwatosa.net, or any other Wauwatosa online services will be considered as your consent to the use of your personal information in the way described.

As a matter of policy, your e-mail address will not be sold, rented, or shared with any other business or organization.

As part of a governmental body, Wauwatosa is subject to open records laws found in Chapter 19 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. Among other things, that means that the City of Wauwatosa must periodically archive Wauwatosa.net and personal information obtained through Wauwatosa.net. The City of Wauwatosa retains archived data for a period of seven years. Upon proper request, the City of Wauwatosa may be required by law to disclose that personal information collected by Wauwatosa to public record requestors.  

Security of Personal Information

We exercise reasonable care to protect your non-public personal information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be one hundred percent secure. So, while we strive to protect your non-public personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or receive from us. This is especially true for information you transmit to us via e-mail. We have no way of protecting that information until it reaches us. Once received, we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information.

We may disclose information, including non-public personal information, in special cases when we have a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with the legal process such as, but not limited to, situations when we are required to do so by federal, state or local laws and regulations or when we receive a subpoena or are ordered by a court to do so; (b) protect and defend our rights; or (c) act to protect the interests of our users or others. Additionally, we may, without notice to you, provide aggregate statistics about web traffic by visitors to the website(s), such as volume, traffic patterns and related site information to reputable third-party vendors, but these statistics will include no personal information.
