the Site.
Data in the Aggregate
Amtrak may disclose aggregated user
statistics (for example, a statistic indicating that 45% of our
users are female) to describe our services to prospective
partners, advertisers, and other selected third parties, and for
other lawful purposes.
Reservation of Rights
Amtrak reserve the right to disclose
personal information when Amtrak have reason to believe
that disclosing this information is necessary to identify,

outside of the state where you originally entered the information.
In addition, that information may be used, stored and processed
outside of Amtrak and outside of the state where you entered that
information.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over
the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a
result, while Amtrak strive to protect your personal

of any information you transmit to
https://procurement.amtrak.com,
and you do so at your own risk. Once Amtrak receive your
transmission, Amtrak utilize reasonable commercials efforts
to ensure its security on Amtrak systems.
