Notice: This is a U.S. Government Web Site
This is a World Wide Web site for official information about the Naval
Safety Center. It is provided as a public service by the
Office of the Director of Information Systems for Command, Control,
Communication, and Computers and the Naval Safety Center. The purpose is
to provide information and news about the Naval Safety Center and
it's mission to the general public.
All information on this site is public domain and may be distributed
and copied for non-commercial purposes unless otherwise specified. Use of appropriate byline, photo and image credits is requested.
To help manage this site, we collect information. We use software
programs to create summary statistics, which are used for website planning
and maintenance, determining technical design specifications, and
analyzing system performance. For security purposes, and to ensure that
this service remains available to all users, we use software programs to
monitor network traffic and to identify unauthorized users.
Unauthorized attempts to upload
information or change information on this Web site are strictly prohibited
and may be punishable under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 and
the National Information Infrastructure Protection Act.
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.
Except for authorized law enforcement investigation and to
maintain required correspondence files, no other attempts are made to
identify individual users or their usage habits. Raw data logs are used to
simply determine how many users are accessing the site, which pages are
the most popular, and, from time to time, from which top level
domain users are coming. This data is scheduled for regular destruction in
accordance with National Archives and Records Administration guidelines.
If you identify yourself by sending an e-mail, you may also decide to
identify yourself by sending personal information such as name, address,
phone number and e-mail address. Information is collected for the purpose
of responding to requests or comments, and to improve our services. Your
e-mail may be forwarded to other government agencies who are better able
to respond to your request. The information you send may be retained for
documentation purposes or follow up contacts. In other limited
circumstances, including requests from Congress or limited other parties,
we may be required by law to disclose information that you submit.
Be aware that despite anything we do to protect electronic information,
e-mail is not necessarily secure against interception. If your
communication is sensitive, or includes personal information, you may
prefer to send your comments by regular mail instead.
