TOWN OF NEWTON 
PRIVACY POLICY 
 
The Town of Newton, hereinafter known as “Town”, recognizes and respects your right to privacy 
regarding personal identifying information revealed to the Town through your use of the Town's web site. 
This Privacy Policy explains the Town's practices for collecting personal identifying information from the 
Town's website, and the choices you can make that determine how your personal identifying information 
is collected and used by the Town.  For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, the Town will use the term 
"identity information" to refer to your information which identifies you individually, including, but not limited 
to, your name, phone number, email address, physical address, access dates, IP addresses and pages 
accessed as well as other data.

provide public access to "public records" under the Open Public Records Act. Thus, while the Town will 
make every effort to protect the privacy of your identity information consistent with the requirements of the 
NJ Public Records Act, there may be portions of your communications that the Town will be required to 
reveal to the public.  For example, the Town may be required to provide access to the substance of your 
communication, with a deletion (or redaction) of your identity information.  
 
The Town receives identity information from customers through the Town website through a variety of

Participation in these surveys is entirely optional.  Typically, the information is aggregated and used to 
record citizen opinions on important community issues.  Survey participants are anonymous unless 
otherwise stated in the survey.  
 
The Town tracks web server log files in order to create aggregate statistical reports, detect errors, and 
maintain security.  These reports do not contain any personally identifiable information of users outside 
the Town network.
