Our Philosophy

We are committed to providing you with a convenient and secure online e-government experience. We understand that you have entrusted us with your personal information, and we take very seriously the need to protect that information.

In order to protect your privacy, we will not share any of your personal information with any third party, except (1) in an aggregated, summary form; (2) to fulfill governmental, legal and regulatory obligations (including your obligations under the Terms and Conditions); (3) to process your transactions on this website; or (4) pursuant to your explicit authorization.

We believe that the information collected from citizens should only be that which is necessary to provide the information or services sought by a requester, just as a person might provide such information when visiting our offices in person. The information collected is subject to the same controls and uses as that collected by governmental offices visited in person, again subject to the access and confidentiality provisions of Colorado and Town of Silverthorne laws and federal law.

Personally Identifiable Information

"Personally identifiable information" or "personal information" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual who is the subject of the information. You do not have to provide personally identifiable information. Users do not have to provide personally identifiable information to visit the Town of Silverthorne website or to download information. We may in the future request personally identifiable information from you in order to provide requested specialized services, but such information would be handled as it would be on an in-person visit to a Town office.

Access to Personal Information

The Town of Silverthorne has information about individuals or information which can be identified or associated with a particular individual retained in the public records. Access to this personally identifiable information in public records at state and local levels of government in Colorado is controlled by Colorado law. Information that is generally available under Colorado law and not made confidential elsewhere under Colorado, Town of Silverthorne, or federal law may be posted for electronic access through the Town of Silverthorne website. Colorado law recognizes many concerns people have with regard to public records that include information about them, including the right to correct inaccurate information. Consequently, persons concerned with regard to information about them should contact the custodian of the record, which typically is the state agency or other governmental entity that collects and maintains the information.

Public Disclosure

All information collected on our website will be treated the same as any written communication and is subject to the confidentiality and public disclosure provisions of applicable Colorado, Town of Silverthorne laws and federal law.

Email Senders

Email messages sent to any Town of Silverthorne address will be treated the same as any other written communication.

Email or other information requests sent to our website may be maintained in order to respond to the request, forward that request to the appropriate department, communicate updates to the page that may be of interest to citizens, or provide our web designers and contributors with valuable customer feedback to assist in improving the site.

Electronic Form Filers

Any other information provided by you at the request of the Town of Silverthorne, or an agency thereof, such as the completion and electronic filing of a form, will be considered to be voluntarily provided by the visitor and will be treated in the same manner as information provided in written form or in person during a visit to the agency.

In order to use any web-based payment service on the Town of Silverthorne’s website, you will have to provide only the personal information necessary for us to complete the transaction. We will notify you when you have to provide your personal information.

The amount and type of personal information that we will collect from you will depend on how you decide to make your payment (e.g., credit card). We may archive your personal information for auditing, diagnostic and user support purposes.

Disclosures to Our Credit and Bank Card Processing Providers

We are required to provide select personal information (such as your credit card number and account expiration date) to our money transmission vendors to the extent necessary to process your payment for services on our site.

Security

We are committed to data security and the data quality of personally identifiable information that is either available from or collected by our website. Unfortunately, no information transmitted via the Internet is guaranteed to be completely secure due to the nature of the Internet. But we attempt to safeguard your information from loss, misuse or alteration.

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have instituted physical, electronic and managerial procedures to protect your personal information. For example, only certain authorized Town of Silverthorne personnel have access to your personal information, and this information is password protected. We also use firewalls and Secure Socket Layers, where appropriate. We may use intrusion detection systems to guard against unauthorized access.

General Policies for the Use of Town of Silverthorne Property and Facilities

I. Purpose

A. The purpose of this policy is to establish general guidelines regarding the use of all Town of Silverthorne (the “Town”) property and facilities by non-Town organizations and individuals who are not otherwise engaged in official business on the premises. These generalized policies and procedures are intended to compliment and be consistent with the policies and procedures for all Town properties and facilities as provided in the Appendices. In the event that any policy for any specific Town property or facility is inconsistent or in conflict with these policies and procedures, the specific facility policy shall supersede and override any such conflicting existing policies and procedures, to the extent necessary. The Town reserves the right to amend the policies set forth herein.  

B. These policies are intended to comply with all legal requirements of the laws, rules and regulations of the State of Colorado and the United States Government regarding the use of public facilities for speech, including but not limited to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, Article II, Section 10 of the Colorado Constitution, and all other laws, rules and regulations of the State of Colorado and the United States Government regarding the rights of free speech, assembly, and association.  

C. These policies and procedures are intended to provide reasonable protection and accommodation for the rights of the public in the use of Town property and facilities, and to allow for public speech and assembly at reasonable locations while preserving the ability of the Town to perform and protect the primary functions of such property and facilities. In promulgating these policies, the Town finds that it is a primary purpose to ensure that the public, as well as agents, employees and officers of the Town, are able to utilize and enjoy the primary functions of such buildings and facilities. 

D. The Town shall apply these policies without regard to the Speaker’s viewpoint.  Town officials shall apply these policies to restrict use of certain buildings and facilities, in a manner which may have the secondary effect of limiting certain broad categories of speech content, such as commercial or political speech, when narrowly tailored and reasonably necessary to maintain the nonpublic, limited, or designated nature of certain forums throughout the Town. Nonetheless, in the application of these policies, the Town shall make efforts to accommodate all Speakers subject to reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions. 

II. General Policy. 

A. Traditional Public Forums. The public shall have the right to speak and assemble at places traditionally open to the public for such purposes in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the rights of other members of the public and the Town to use such public facilities.  By way of example, traditional public forums include parks and sidewalks.   

B. Non-Public Forums.

i. Non-designated facilities. Any Town property or facility, or any portion of a Town property or facility not a Traditional Public Forum (i.e. parks and sidewalks) or a Designated Public Forum as provided herein, shall be considered a Non-public Forum, and will be open to the public only for the permitted and intended uses of such areas. 

ii. Areas of ingress, egress, and circulation. Areas of any Town building or facility that are primarily utilized for means of ingress or egress to and from such building or facility, or otherwise utilized for the primary purpose of circulating throughout various offices or facilities of any building, and any waiting rooms for any Town offices or departments, are expressly designated as non- public forums, and no public use or activities outside of the specific primary function of such building or facility shall be allowed.

Designated Public Forums.  There is designated by Appendix B of this Policy a Designated Public Forum pursuant to policies set forth therein.  The Town has not designated any other facilities as such.

III. Permits for organized events.

A. Permit Required. Permits for organized events at Town facilities that are Designated and Traditional Public Forums are subject to the procedures in the Silverthorne Municipal Code Section 4-4-27 Event Permits. 

i. Permits are required for organized events at Town parks when it is anticipated that more than twenty-five people will attend, or a tent, amplification, or other significant impact to the park experience is requested.  Permit applications for such events shall be made not less than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the event. 

ii. Permits are required for any organized parade, protest, or procession utilizing the Town right-of-way when it is anticipated that more than ten people will attend. Permit applications for such events shall be made not less than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the event. 

B. Facility Priority. Permit applications shall be processed on a first-come first-served basis and depending on the availability and capacity of the requested facility. Town activities shall receive first priority for the use of the available facilities and may require an existing permittee to move or reschedule an event.

C. Regulation. Permits are subject to the Silverthorne Municipal Code and reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions that ensure the public safety and orderly keeping of Town business.  Event attendees may not block traffic within the Town right-of-way, or access to any buildings or private property.

D. Denial. In addition to the standards provided in section 4-4-27 of the Silverthorne Municipal Code, permits may be denied for activities that include obscenity, actual threats of violence, and fighting words.
