Thank you for visiting my web site. Protecting the personal privacy of individuals who use the Internet is a priority for me and I appreciate the opportunity to describe to you the policies we have put in place.

Our basic Internet privacy policy is simple: the web site collects no personal information about you when you visit the site unless you choose to provide that information to us during your visit so that we can contact you about an issue you have raised or help you with a problem.

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 (such as your name) is automatically gathered when you visit any Senate web site. This site does not use 'cookies' or other means to track your visit to our site in any way.

My web site does not collect any personal information about you when you visit the site unless you choose to provide that information by filling out a form (to apply for an internship, send me an email message, invite me to attend an event in Tennessee or forward particulars about a problem you may be having with the federal government). If you send personal information to me or a member of my staff, my office will not share it with anyone outside the Senate without your written consent.

Grassley.senate.gov has links to other useful sites on the Internet, including the sites of other government agencies. 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.

Again, thank your for visiting my web site. If you have comments or questions about this privacy policy - or any other area of the site - please click here to send me a message.
