Standard Mandatory Notice and Consent Provision
for all DoD Information System User Agreements
By signing this document, you acknowledge and
consent that
when you access
Department of Defense (DoD) information systems:
You are accessing a U.S. Government (USG)
information system (IS)
(which includes
any device attached to this information system)
that is provided for U.S. Government authorized
use only.
You consent to the following conditions:
The U.S.
Government routinely intercepts and monitors
communications on this
information system for purposes including, but
not limited to, penetration testing,
communications security (COMSEC) monitoring,
network operations and defense,
personnel misconduct (PM), law enforcement
(LE), and counterintelligence (CI)
investigations.
At any time, the U.S. Government may inspect
and seize data stored on this
information system.
Communications using, or data stored on, this
information system are not private,
are subject to routine monitoring, interception,
and search, and may be disclosed
or used for any U.S. Government-authorized
purpose.
This information system includes security measures
(e.g., authentication and
access controls) to protect U.S. Government
interests--not for your personal
benefit or privacy.
Notwithstanding the above, using an information
system does not constitute
consent to personnel misconduct, law enforcement,
or counterintelligence
investigative searching or monitoring of the
content of privileged communications
or data (including work product) that are related
to personal representation or
services by attorneys, psychotherapists, or
clergy, and their assistants. Under
these circumstances, such communications and
work product are private and
confidential, as further explained below:
In cases when the user
has consented to content searching or monitoring
of
communications or data for personnel misconduct,
law enforcement, or
counterintelligence investigative searching,
(i.e., for all communications and data
other than privileged communications or data
that are related to personal representation
or services by attorneys, psychotherapists,
or clergy, and their assistants), the U.S.
Government may, solely at its discretion
and in accordance with DoD policy, elect
to apply
a privilege or other restriction on the U.S.
Government's otherwise-authorized use or
disclosure of such information.
All of the above conditions apply regardless
of whether the access or use of an
information system includes the display of
a Notice and Consent Banner
("banner"). When a banner is used,
the banner functions to remind the user of
the
conditions that are set forth in this User
Agreement, regardless of whether the
banner describes these conditions in full
detail or provides a summary of such
conditions, and regardless of whether the
banner expressly references this User
Agreement.
