What precautions are taken to protect personal contact information stored in the AlertTC database?
AlertTC is a service powered by the Universal Communications System, a product of Twenty-First Century Communications, Inc (TFCC). Your county/city government and TFCC take citizen security and privacy concerns seriously. Policy and contract agreements have been put into place that prohibit AlertTC contact information from being shared, sold, traded, leased or loaned to outside parties. Staff cannot access or download information from the 411, 911, or public sign-up databases; all interaction with this data is in aggregate form via a map interface. Citizen provided contact information transmitted through the web portal is sent over a secure connection. All data exchanged between TFCC, county/city government agencies, and telephone companies is conducted via a secure platform.
