This section explains how USAIDÂ will handle information we learn about you from your visit to our Web site. The information we receive depends upon what you do when visiting our site.
If you visit our site to read or download information, such as country information or information about one of our activities:
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; the Internet address of the Web site from which you linked directly to our site; and what information you view while you visit our Web site.
We use the information we collect to measure the number of visitors to the different sections of our site, find out what information is the most viewed, and to help us make our Web site more useful to visitors. This gathering and storing of information is separate from the activity described as monitoring in our Security Notice.
The information gathered is used for two purposes: site management and, in the case of suspected unauthorized activity, for law enforcement and possible criminal prosecution. (See Security Notice.)
If you identify yourself by sending us a comment using our contact page, an E-mail or by completing an online form:
You also may decide to send us personally-identifying information, for example, in an electronic mail message asking a question or providing us with a comment or suggestion, or in an online form associated with requesting or downloading details about tender or other opportunities. We use personally-identifying information to respond to your question, comment or suggestion, to count the number of people sending us comments, and/or to respond to your requests for information. In certain instances, your comment or suggestion may be forwarded to U.S. government agencies or departments if they are in the best position to respond to your message.
We want to be very clear: We will not obtain personally-identifying information about you when you visit our site, unless you choose to provide such information to us.
