Personal Information You Provide to Us
The Connecticut Education & Training ConneCTion does not obtain personally identifiable
information about you when you visit the Web site unless you choose to
provide such information to us (i.e., sending an email, responding to a
feedback form, or contacting us, etc.)
We consider any information that could reasonably be used to identify you
as personally identifying information. This includes, but is
not limited to:
- Your name
- Your address
- Your email address
The Connecticut Department of Labor may request personally identifiable information from
you in order to provide requested services, but such information is handled
as it would be on an in-person visit to a Connecticut Department of Labor office.
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.
Email Communications and Web Forms
If you send us an electronic mail message with
a question or comment that contains personally identifying information, or
fill out a form on our site, we will only use this personally
identifying information to respond to your request. We may redirect your
message to another government agency or person who is in a better position to
answer your question.
All email addresses collected by Connecticut Department of Labor
contain the names of people who voluntarily communicated with or requested
information from us. Email addresses are not sold, leased, or shared with any
governmental or commercial entities without their consent. When a user has
given us their email address for purposes of communicating or requesting
information, that communication
becomes part of the public record and may be subject to public inspection and
copying if not protected by federal or state law.
We do not use cookies to collect information on the Connecticut Education & Training ConneCTion
site. A cookie is a text file, not a program, which is sent to
your computer when you access a site. Cookies do not disclose your name or email
address to a Web site. They can only tell a Web site if you have
visited before and can pass short bits of information from the Web site back to
itself the next time you visit.
Except as provided for by applicable state and federal laws, we do not collect,
use, or disclose user information without their knowledge and approval. We do not
share user information with third parties unless we have informed users
about the disclosures or have their prior consent.
