Privacy Statement

TxDLA is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology that gives you the most powerful and safe online experience. This Statement of Privacy applies to the TxDLA website and governs data collection and usage. By using the TxDLA website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Collection of your Personal Information

TxDLA collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address, or telephone number. TxDLA also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests, and favorites.

There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by TxDLA . This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times, and referring website addresses. This information is used by TxDLA for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the TxDLA website.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through TxDLA public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: TxDLA does not read any of your private online communications.

TxDLA encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to from TxDLA so that you can understand how those websites collect, use, and share your information. TxDLA is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the TxDLA and TxDLA family of websites.

Use of your Personal Information

TxDLA collects and uses your personal information to operate the TxDLA website and deliver the services you have requested. TxDLA also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from TxDLA and its affiliates. TxDLA may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

TxDLA does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. TxDLA may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, TxDLA may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to TxDLA, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

TxDLA does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

TxDLA keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within TxDLA, in order to determine what TxDLA services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within TxDLA to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

TxDLA websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on TxDLA or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of TxDLA ; or, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of TxDLA, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The TxDLA website uses “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a webpage server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize TxDLA pages or register with the TxDLA site or services, a cookie helps TxDLA recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same TxDLA website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the TxDLA features that you customized.

In addition, TxDLA partners with third-party service providers, including Meta and Google, to collect and process data for digital advertising and analytics purposes. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to gather information about your interactions with the TxDLA website and other websites over time. This information helps us deliver relevant advertisements and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

The data shared with Meta and Google may include, but is not limited to, IP addresses, device information, browsing behavior on our website, and engagement metrics. This data is used to create aggregated insights, optimize ad targeting, and improve user experience.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. You can also manage your ad preferences through the settings provided by Meta and Google or by using tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance’s WebChoices tool (https://optout.aboutads.info/). If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the TxDLA services or websites you visit.

For more details on how Meta and Google handle user data, please refer to their respective privacy policies:

Meta: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy

Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy

By using the TxDLA website, you consent to the use of cookies and tracking technologies as described in this policy.

Security of your Personal Information

TxDLA secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. TxDLA secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
