This website is operated by the Mecklenburg County Council, for the purpose of providing a means of communicating a variety of information to our members and prospective members.

The Mecklenburg County Council is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. This site collects anonymous data that is not indicative of and cannot be traced to an individual without the cooperation of their Internet Service Provider. This data includes information about the user's remote IP address, referral data (which page "linked" to the present request), and the browser software's user-agent string. This information is accepted passively from the HTTP headers that are sent from the user when requesting any file from the server.

The anonymous information collected is used to monitor the usage of this website and the interests of those who use it. Data such as the volume of traffic to the server, the number of visitors a certain section of the site receives each month, or the most popular search terms are analyzed to derive general statistics about the site's reach and the audience's usage patterns.

No attempt is made to covertly or "quietly" collect personally identifiable information, nor are cookies or any other tracking technology used.  Providing personal information is never a prerequisite for accessing any of the content or resources on this website.

Reports, statistics, and other analyses of aggregate anonymous information may be shared within the organization at the sole discretion of the Mecklenburg County Council.
