Privacy Policy
In November 2007, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) passed regulations referred to as a Red Flag Rule, which require certain businesses that maintain covered accounts, including utilities, to identify patterns, practices, and activities that indicate the possible existence of identity theft, and establish a program to identify, mitigate, and prevent identity theft. Since Cherokee County Electric Cooperative Association (CCECA) maintains accounts for its members and allows these members to pay for services after they have been rendered, it is considered a creditor, and it is subject to the Red Flag Rules.
For questions about CCECA’s privacy policy, call (903) 683-2248 or write to Cherokee County Electric Cooperative Association, PO Box 257, Rusk, TX 75785.
