The information that is available from governmental web sites is subject to these principles and policies:
Access to personally identifiable information in public records at state and local levels of government in Iowa is
controlled primarily by Chapter 22 of the Code of Iowa. Information generally available under Chapter 22 - and not
made confidential elsewhere in the Code of Iowa - may be posted for electronic access.
Persons concerned
with regard to information about them should contact the custodian of the record, which typically is the state
agency or other governmental entity that collects and maintains the information.
The information collected
should only be that necessary to provide the information or services sought by a requester, just as a person might
provide such information when visiting a governmental office in person.
The information collected is
subject to the same controls and uses as that collected by governmental offices visited in person, again subject to
the access and confidentiality provisions of Chapter 22, or to other applicable sections of the Code of Iowa. You do
not have to provide personal information to visit the web sites or download information. The IP (Internet Protocol)
numbers of computers used to visit these sites are noted as part of our statistical analysis on use of our web sites
and how to better design services and facilitate access to them. No marketing databases are created nor are any
commercial uses made of any such data. Government agencies 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
government office.
Various other web sites may be linked through this site. Private sector sites are not
subject to Chapter 22. Visitors to those sites may wish to check their privacy statements and be cautious about
providing personally identifiable information.

This site
has links to other web sites as a convenience to our customers. These links may be operated by other government
