We collect the following information in order to
measure the number of visitors to the different sections of our site and
to help make our site more accessible and useful to visitors:

The Internet Protocol Address. The Internet Protocol address is
a numerical identifier assigned to either your Internet service
provider or directly to your computer.
• The type of browser and operating system you

• The date and time you visited this site.
• The Web pages you accessed during your visit.
• The Web site which referred you to this site.
• Any words you used to search this site.
Use
of Information
The above information is used to determine what is of the most
and least interest, times of peak usage, and missing or broken links. We
will not contact you without your explicit permission. We also will not
give or transfer your personally identifiable information except for
purposes approved by the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board.
Secure
Applications
Secure applications such as this one provide the
opportunity to receive or create a password to
access or submit personal information. You should not divulge
your password to anyone. The SST Registration System will never
ask you for your password in an unsolicited telephone call or e
mail. When you have finished with any password protected
application, we recommend you exit the page.
E

If during your visit to the SST Registration System
Web site you send an e-mail message, the message and e-mail address may
be retained by the server. This may be used to respond to you, to
address issues you identify, to further improve our Web site, or to
forward the e-mail to another agency for appropriate action.
The
confidentiality of Internet transactions is not guaranteed. We recommend
against sending any personal information in an e-mail. We will not e
mail account related or other personal information as part of our
response to you unless specifically requested by you.
Link Disclaimer
The SST Registration System provides links to various
external Web sites. The department has no responsibility for content or
presentation of such external Web sites. By linking to an external Web
site, we do not endorse its products, services, accuracy or security
policies. Once you pass to another Web site, not maintained by the SST
Registration System, you are subject to the terms and conditions of that
Web site.
Information Disclaimer
While all attempts are made to provide accurate, current
and reliable information on this Web site there is a possibility of either
human or mechanical error. The SST Registration System expressly denies
any warranty of the accuracy, reliability or timeliness of such
information.
Security Statement
The Streamlined Sales Tax Registration System is committed to
maintaining the confidentiality and security of our customer’s information
in Internet transactions
The Internet, by its very nature and design, is an open system
that does not automatically provide a secure means of sending and
receiving information. For example the confidentiality of personal
information you disclose via e-mail cannot be guaranteed. Therefore we
recommend against sending any personal information to us in e-mail.
However, to protect information used in Internet
transactions the SST Registration System uses the following
information security techniques and procedures:
Passwords or PINs (Personal Identification Numbers) are
required for online transactions.
Information is exchanged via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) that
uses 128-bit encryption.
Information requests must pass through multiple hardware and
software security firewalls.
The SST Registration system is subject to state and internal
audits and continually strives to improve its systems and procedures based
on audit recommendations.

Statement for related information.
