Thank you for visiting the Colorado Attorney General’s Web site and for reviewing our privacy policy. This policy addresses the Attorney General’s standardized process for access to and for the collection, storage, use, transfer, and security of personally identifiable information that may be obtained through use of the Attorney General’s Web site.
It is our policy to collect no personally identifiable information about you unless that information is required to complete a particular transaction. In addition, we collect no personally identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily participate in activities that ask for information. Choosing not to participate in these activities will not affect your ability to use any other features of our Web site.
The Colorado Open Records Act is applicable to this Privacy Policy. Section 24-72-202, C.R.S. says “It is declared to be the public policy of this state that all public records shall be open for inspection by any person at reasonable times, except as provided in this part 2 or as otherwise specifically provided by law.”
If personal information is requested on the Web site or is volunteered by the user, state and federal law may protect that information. However, all information becomes a public record once it is provided and may be subject to public inspection and copying if not protected by federal or state law.
Furthermore, the information filed with the Attorney General may be stored electronically and may be made accessible to the public through the Attorney General’s Web site. Except where disclosure is protected by law, the information that is electronically stored may be purchased by private individuals and entities.
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 provided by an adult and may be subject to public access.
