Collection and Use of Information
hpdcareer.com does not sell or rent personally identifiable information. Please be aware that when you provide information to any government entity, however, that information may be subject to the Texas Public Information Act and applicable federal legislation. Information about the Texas Public Information Act is available from the Office of the Attorney General at http://www.oag.state.tx.us/opinopen/open_policy.shtml. Each governmental body must be contacted directly about the records they keep and their use of personally identifiable information.

The hpdcareer.com Web site utilizes server logs and log analysis tools to create summary statistics about the use of the Web site.

For online government transactions conducted on the hpdcareer.com Web site, you will be asked to enter certain information about yourself and/or the organization with which you are affiliated. The specifics of this information will vary as required by the type of transaction and the governmental body involved. In each case, the information requested will include the same information that would be requested if you performed the identical transaction in person rather than online. Whenever personal information is requested from you on this site, there will be an indication of whether your disclosure of such information is mandatory or optional. Information collected in the course of the transaction is used for the following purposes:

  • To conduct online transactions with the appropriate government entities (e.g., the payment of sales tax or the renewal of a license or permit).
  • To send you an e-mail confirming your transaction.
  • To forward new product announcements or content features to you, only if you have chosen to request this service.
