Information Collected and Stored Automatically |
The U.S. Senate collects aggregate data about visits to Senate web
sites, such as statistics that show which parts of each web site were
visited the most. The following information is also collected when you
visit any U.S. Senate web site: the domain from which you access the
Senate web site, the date and time of your visit, the pages you visit,
and the address of the web site, if any, that provided the link from
which you reached the Senate site. This information is gathered only
for the purpose of enabling us to improve the online service we provide
to visitors to Senate web sites.

No individual identifying or personal information |
No individual identifying or personal information (such as your name)
is automatically gathered when you visit any Senate web site. This web
site does not use 'cookies' or other means to track your visit to our
site in any way. To learn more about the Senate's Internet security and

If You Send Us Personal Information |
This web site is set up not to collect any personal information about
you when you visit the site unless you choose to provide that
information to us. Information provided will be treated confidentially
by my staff and me.
When you request our assistance in resolving an issue, the information you provide may be shared with other government agencies only when necessary to resolve your issue. The information you provide us will be released to law enforcement agencies if threatening or other potentially unlawful communications are made.

Links to Other Sites |
This web site has links to other useful sites on the Internet,
including sites of other government agencies and sites relating to the
Republican Party, its agenda, and its members. If you follow any link
that takes you to a location that does not include 'senate.gov' in the
address, you will have left the Senate web server and you will need to
refer to that site's own privacy policy.
