Information Collection and Use

Fredericksburg Economic Development and Tourism (EDT) is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. EDT will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. EDT relies on information supplied by our tourist-related businesses and cannot guarantee accuracy. EDT collects information from our users at several different points on our website. A listing on this site does not constitute a recommendation from the EDT office.

Order

We request information from the user on our order form (for instance, when a user orders a Visitor Guide or a Pass To Historic Fredericksburg). Here a user must provide contact information (like name and shipping address). This information is used to fill customer’s orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

Surveys & Contests

From time to time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.

Notification of Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our privacy page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under which circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
