PRIVACY STATEMENT
Career Center Web Site Privacy Statement
The privacy, confidence, and trust of individuals who visit the Career Center web site are important to us. No personal information is collected at
this site unless it is provided voluntarily by an individual while participating
in an activity that asks for the information. The following paragraphs disclose
the information gathering and usage practices for the web site.
Collection of Information
The Center only collects the personal information that is necessary to provide
the information or services requested by an individual. "Personal information"
refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual
who is the subject of the information. This is the same information that an
individual might provide when visiting a government office and includes such
items as an individual's name, address, or phone number. We also collect
statistical information that helps us understand how people are using the web
site so we can continually improve our services. The information collected is
not associated with any specific individual and no attempt is made to profile
individuals who browse the web site. You may be asked to participate in surveys
at this site. Participation is optional, and the choice to participate or not to
participate will have no effect on your ability to use other features of the
site.
Use of Information
The Center uses the collected information to respond appropriately to requests.
This may be to respond directly to you or to improve the web site. E-mail or
other information requests sent to the Center web site may be maintained or
forwarded to the appropriate agencies in order to respond to the request. Survey
information is used for the purpose designated in the survey.
Retention of Information
Records needed to support Center program functions are retained, managed, and
accessible in record-keeping or filing systems in accordance with established
records disposition authorizations approved by the Center's Public Records
Commission. Records transmitted to this site will be identified, managed,
protected, and retained as long as they are needed to meet historical,
administrative, fiscal, or legal requirements.
Public Disclosure
Regardless of whether information is provided to the Center by personal visit,
mail, or web site, it becomes public record and is open to public inspection
unless protected by Center or Federal law. Public records are subject to the
rules and requirements located in Tennessee Code Annotated Title 10 Chapter 7. A
public record is defined as follows:
As a general rule, information of a personal nature is not subject to public
inspection.
"Public record(s)" or "Center record(s)" means all
documents, papers, letters, maps, books, photographs, microfilms, electronic
data processing files and output, films, sound recordings or other material,
regardless of physical form or characteristics made or received pursuant to law
or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by any
governmental agency. (T.C.A. 10-7-301 (6))
Based on the definition of public records, be aware
that any information collected at this site could be made available to the
public. Requests for public records will be examined for compliance with public
record laws.
