Childstats' Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting Childstats and reviewing our privacy policy. We will collect no
personal information about you when you visit our website unless you choose to provide
that information to us. We do not give, share, sell, or transfer any personal information
to a third party.
Information collected and stored automatically
We analyze user traffic patterns on Childstats from information automatically provided by
your browser when you visit our site. This information includes the IP address of your
computer or network, the date, time, and page you visited on our site, your browser and
operating system, and the referring page (the last webpage you visited before clicking on
a link to Childstats).
We use the aggregated information from all of our visitors to measure server performance
and improve the content of our site.
We sometimes track the keywords that are entered into our search engine to measure
interest in specific topics, but we do not track which terms a particular user enters.
Links to other sites
Childstats uses link and search capabilities to navigate publicly available statistics
from numerous federal agencies and other sites. The privacy policies and procedures
described here do not apply to those sites. We suggest contacting these sites directly for
information on their data collection and distribution policies.
Cookies:
What are cookies? Cookies are pieces of information that a Web site uses for record
keeping purposes. The use of cookies is an industry standard, and you'll find cookies at
most major Web sites.
By showing how and when guests use the site, cookies help us see which areas are popular
and which are not. Many improvements and updates to our site are based on such data as
total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with
cookies.
On those pages where we use "cookies" to facilitate your use of our site, we do
not collect personal information about you and the cookie will be destroyed as soon as you
exit your browser. There is no information stored on your computer and no unauthorized
files are written onto your disk drives.
Information from e-mail you send to us:
If you decide to send us an electronic mail message (e-mail), the message will usually
contain your return e-mail address. If you include personally-identifying information in
your e-mail because you want us to address issues specific to your situation, we may use
that information in responding to your request, but it will only be used in tracking the
types of users who access this site. Also, e-mail is not necessarily secure against
interception. Please send only information necessary to help us process your request.
Site security
We monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change
information or to otherwise cause damage to the site. Anyone using this Web site expressly
consents to such monitoring.
