Privacy Statement
|
Thank you for visiting the Results.gov Website and reviewing our
privacy policy. Our privacy policy is clear: We will collect no
personal information about you when you visit our website unless
you choose to provide that information to us. Here is how we
handle information about your visit to our website:
Results.gov Internet Security Policy
For site security purposes and to ensure that this service
remains available to all users, this government computer system
employs software programs to monitor network traffic to identify
unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or
otherwise cause damage.
Unauthorized attempts to upload information or change
information on this service are strictly prohibited and may be
punishable under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 and
the National Information Infrastructure Protection Act.
Information Collected And Stored Automatically
If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the
website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and
store certain information about your visit automatically. This
information does not identify you personally. We automatically
collect and store only the following information about your
visit:
- The Internet domain (for example, "xcompany.com" if you use a private Internet access account, or "yourschool.edu" if you connect from a university's domain) and IP address (an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web) from which you access our website;
- The type of browser and operating system used to access our site;
- The date and time you access our site;
- The pages you visit; and
- If you linked to the Results.gov website from another website, the address of that website.
We use this information to help us make our site more useful to
visitors -- to learn about the number of visitors to our site
and the types of technology our visitors use. We do not track or
record information about individuals and their visits.
If You Send Us Personal Information
If you choose to provide us with personal information by sending
an e-mail to Results.gov, we use that information to
respond to your message and to help us provide you with
information that you request. We do not
collect personal information for any other purposes. The
information you provide is not given to any private
organizations or private persons. The Results.gov does not
collect or use information for commercial marketing.
We would share your e-mail with another federal government
agency only if your inquiry related to that agency or if we were
required to do so by law. The Presidential Records Act requires
us to maintain some documents, including e-mails, received by
the Results.gov and requires public disclosure of some of these
documents twelve years after President Bush leaves office. In
addition, we would release documents, including e-mails, if
required to do so by a congressional or judicial subpoena.
Links To Other Sites
Our website has links to the websites of many other federal
agencies. In a few cases, we link to private organizations, with
their permission. Before leaving the Results.gov website, a page
will appear informing you that you are leaving our server. Once
you link to another site, you are subject to the privacy policy
of the new site.
