This Web site is provided as a
public service by the Department of the Treasury and is
considered public information which may be distributed
or copied. Use of appropriate byline/photo/image
credits is requested.
For site management, information is collected for
statistical purposes. Computer software programs are
used to create summary statistics, which are used for
such purposes as assessing what information is of most
and least interest, determining technical design
specifications, and identifying system performance or
problem areas. No information subject to the Privacy
Act, such as name and address, is collected or used for
this analysis. Raw data logs are used for no other
purposes and are scheduled for regular destruction in
accordance with National Archives and Records
Administration Guidance.
Except for authorized law enforcement investigations,
no other attempts are made to identify individual users
or their usage habits.
The Treasury web sites do not, as a rule, enable
'cookies'. One or more of the bureaus may use cookies.
For additional information specific to a Treasury
bureau regarding their use and other privacy
information, please visit that bureau's Web site."
If you visit our site to read or download information,
we collect and store only the following information
about you: the name of the domain from which you access
the Internet; the date and time you access our site;
and the Internet address of the web site from which you
linked directly to our site. We will not obtain
personally identifying information about you when you
visit our site, unless you voluntarily choose to
provide such information to us by E-mail, by completing
a comment form, forum registration site, or other
on-line form. The Department of the Treasury does not
give, sell or transfer personal information to third
parties, unless required by law, such as the Freedom of
Information Act.
Generally, individuals are strongly discouraged from
sending any personal information, like a social
security number, to the Treasury Web master or any
Treasury E-mail address. It may be necessary on certain
bureau web sites to collect personally identifiable
information (name, E-mail address, social security
number, or other unique identifier), but only if
specifically and knowingly provided by you. Personally
identifying information you provide will be used only
for such other purposes as are described at the point
of collection by the bureau asking for the
information.
