City of Branson Privacy Statement

Our Philosophy
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 federal, state and local law.

Any other information provided by you at the request of the City of Branson 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 City of Branson.
