Information We Collect
When you give us your name, e-mail address or mailing address, we only use it to fulfill your request for materials or to supply you with future information that you have indicated that you wish to receive. If you participate in a contest or other promotional feature, we may ask for your name, address, cell phone number, social media account name and/or e-mail address so we can administer the contest and notify winners.
When you complete an on-line survey on our site we may ask for contact information (e.g. your e-mail address) and, sometimes, demographic information (e.g. your age, zip code, travel habits, travel history, destination preferences, income range, gender, family size). We use this information to better understand our visitors and potential visitors and to improve this website and our individual and group travel products.
How We Use the Information
We maintain strict security over all the information about the activity of visitors to this site. We use the information you share with us to improve our site and our individual and group travel products. We monitor website visitor traffic patterns to guide our further development and improvement of the site itself. To the extent allowed by law, including the Texas Public Information Act, we do not share your information with any organization or business outside of The Colony CVB.
Opting Out
You can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to take advantage of The Colony CVB services, or to receive more information about The Colony. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please contact us by telephone at 1-800-653-0603 or email us at thecolonycvb@thecolonytx.gov with "Remove from your mailing list" in the subject line.

Security of Information
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
IP addresses
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track movement throughout the site, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information. We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, this page will be updated to reflect the changes so our site visitors are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
