When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor\u2019s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https:\/\/automattic.com\/privacy\/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We do collect some technical information when you visit in order to make your visit seamless. The following section explains how we handle and collect technical information when you visit our website.<\/p>\n
When you browse, read pages or download information on Nextsteps.Idaho.gov, we automatically gather and store specific technical information about your visit. This information (listed below) never identifies who you are.<\/p>\n
The information we automatically collect or store is used to improve the content of our web services and to help us understand how people are using our services. Access Idaho and the Idaho State Board of Education analyze web site logs to continually improve the value of the materials available on our sites. Web site logs are not personally identifiable, and we make no attempt to link them with the individuals that browse Nextsteps.Idaho.gov.<\/p>\n
If during your visit to Nextsteps.Idaho.gov, you participate in a survey or send an e-mail to us, the following additional information will be collected:<\/p>\n
The information collected is not limited to text characters and may include audio, video, and graphic file\u00a0formats you send us. The information is retained in accordance with Idaho Open Records Law.<\/p>\n
We use your e-mail address to respond appropriately. This may be to reply to you, to address issues you identify, to further improve our web site, or to forward the e-mail to another agency for appropriate action. Survey information is used only for the purpose designated.<\/p>\n
“Personal information” is information about an individual that is readily identifiable to that specific individual. Personal information includes personal identifiers, such as an individual’s name, address, and phone number. Domain names and Internet Protocol addresses are not considered personal information.<\/p>\n
We collect no personal information about you unless you voluntarily participate in an activity that asks for information (i.e. sending an e-mail, sharing content, applying for some type of license or permit, or participating in a survey). If you choose not to participate in these activities, your choice will in no way affect your ability to use any other feature of Nextsteps.Idaho.gov.<\/p>\n
If personal information is requested on the web site or volunteered by the user, state law and the federal Privacy Act of 1974 may protect it. However, this information is a public record, once you provide it, and may be subject to public inspection and copying if not protected by federal or state law.<\/p>\n
Users are cautioned that the collection of personal information requested from or volunteered by children online or by e-mail will be treated the same as information given by an adult and may be subject to public access.<\/p>\n
Children under the age of 13 are not eligible to use services that require submission of personal information and should not submit any personal information to us. This includes submitting personal information to the website as part of a user profile or personalization profile. If you are a child under the age of 13, you can use these services only if used together with your parents or guardians. Seek guidance from your parents or guardians if you are under the age of 13.<\/p>\n
If we decide to begin collecting personal information from children under the age of 13, we will notify parents that it is being requested, disclose the reasons for collecting it, and disclose our intended use of it. We will seek verifiable parental consent before collecting any personally identifiable information. If we do collect such information, parents may request information on the type of data being collected, view their child’s information, and, if they choose, prohibit us from making further use of their child’s information. We will not provide personal information about children to third parties.<\/p>\n
In the State of Idaho, laws exist to ensure that government is open and that the public has a right to access appropriate records and information possessed by State government. At the same time, there are exceptions to the public’s right to access public records that serve various needs: the privacy of individuals is included among these exceptions in both state and federal laws.<\/p>\n
We strive to protect personally identifiable information by collecting only the information necessary to deliver our services. All information collected at this site becomes a public record that may be subject to inspection and copying by the public, unless an exemption in law exists.<\/p>\n
In the event of a conflict between this Nextsteps.Idaho.gov Privacy Policy\u00a0and laws governing the disclosure of records, the applicable laws will control.<\/p>\n
Access Idaho will collect, retain, and use business\/personal information about its customers only when they volunteer to subscribe to an Access Idaho premium service. Business\/personal information is only collected, retained, and used by Access Idaho where essential (and allowed by law) to administer its business and to communicate with and provide products, services, and other opportunities to its customers. Access Idaho reserves the right to retain all electronic correspondence (e-mail) and any information contained therein.<\/p>\n
Subscriber information will not be sold or rented to any outside company or organization. Access Idaho does not reveal specific information about subscribers or other personally identifiable data to unaffiliated third parties for their independent use, except if required to do so by law.<\/p>\n
You can review any personal information we collect about you. You may recommend changes to your personal information you believe is in error by submitting a written request that credibly shows the error. If you believe that your personal information is being used for a purpose other than what was intended when submitted, you may contact us. In all cases, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections. See Access Idaho Contact Information, section XIII.<\/p>\n
