User-volunteered information

In addition to the IP address/browser information collected from visitors to the site, personal information is collected and stored only when users provide it voluntarily. For example, if you send us an email, sign up for a subscription or service, complete a transaction, or complete and submit a form, some personal information is collected and stored.

All these activities are purely voluntary. You will always have the option of whether to provide this information using IN.gov. State agencies must provide paper-based alternatives when requested.

Cookies

When you visit our website, we may collect information from you automatically through cookies or similar technology in order to improve your experience on our website.

Cookies are small, often encrypted text files captured by your device’s browser upon loading a particular website. Every time you go back to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website’s server.

• IN.gov uses the information automatically collected from your browser to enable the efficient operation of the website, to enhance the ease of use of the website, and to gather statistics on how you use the website. 
• IN.gov uses any information you voluntarily provide to provide services requested, to respond to inquiries, and improve our services. 
• IN.gov itself does not use collected information for marketing purposes; however, state agencies using the IN.gov portal for their websites may use information collected on those sites to send direct communications to users who provide contact information.

• IN.gov will only send personal information about you to other government agencies, individuals, or organizations when:
  • We have your consent to share the information;
  • Your inquiry relates to another state agency and we need to share information with that agency to fulfill your request;
  • We need to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested. For example, without limitation, IN.gov uses a third-party billing organization, and it sends information for billing purposes only;
  • We need to send the information to organizations who work on behalf of IN.gov to provide a product or service to you. (Unless we tell you differently, these organizations do not have any right to use the personal information we provide to them beyond what is necessary to assist us);
  • We are authorized to do so by law, subpoena, court order, or legal process; or
  • We find that your actions on State websites violate the IN.gov Terms of Use Agreement or any of our usage guidelines for specific products or services.

Indiana law governs the use of and access to this information under the Indiana Fair Information Practices Act and the Indiana Access to Public Records Act. (Indiana Code 4-1-6) If State or Federal law treats information as a disclosable public record, a State agency may choose to make the record available through IN.gov in much the same manner as the agency would make a record available to a member of the public who visits the agency in-person.
