The Village of Pecatonica understands the value of personal information and works to protect the personal information we collect from the public. The Village does not sell or rent data, including personally identifiable information. We occasionally will share this information with other nonprofit organizations or governmental entities in order to support the transaction or service.
As a governmental entity in the State of Illinois, Pecatonica is subject to the Local Records Act, which defines how records should be managed. Further, almost all information that government entities, including cities, collect are subject to public disclosure request. This ensures that the public can find out what information has been collected about them and provide a way to know more about how our government operates. The State of Illinois Freedom of Information Act outlines legal requirements that govern requests for government records, and specifies which records are exempt.
