When you contact our customer service office, before conducting any business on your account we will first verify your identity with only a name and the last four digits of your social security number, or if you prefer, a 4-digit PIN number that you create. To set it up the first time we will also ask your date of birth. We appreciate your assistance to make it work.

The Cowlitz PUD will not e-mail you in the future unless you have given us your consent.

The Cowlitz PUD will never collect sensitive information about you without your explicit consent.

In addition to the sharing of personal information listed above, we may release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law or law enforcement; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Cowlitz PUD, other users, or others.
