eGovernment is a collaborative initiative within Oakland County government to share information and resources electronically among one another in order to reduce redundancy and improve quality, while at the same time delivering information and services electronically to citizens, businesses, governments and County employees via the Oakland County Web site.
What is the Oakland County Web Site (www.oakgov.com) all about?
www.oakgov.com is Oakland County's one-stop access to County government -- a centralized Internet gateway through which citizens, business, employees and local governments will easily access information from multiple departments, divisions and agencies.

Currently, you can use your credit card to make transactional purchases in the @ccess Oakland section. Some additional transactional services we are working on include ordering a birth certificate, paying a traffic ticket, paying your taxes, ordering a vehicle permit for Oakland County Parks, etc.
How safe is the information that I provide the County?
Your privacy and confidentiality are extremely important to us. Security measures includes the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for the secure transfer of information between Web client and server, firewall technology to control access to and within the Oakland County network, authenticated access to services, and public-key cryptography. All sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, will always be transmitted via strong encryption in order to ensure that this information is not intercepted.
