PRIVACY NOTICE

Thank you for visiting the USAID website. Your privacy and security are very
important to us. Please be aware that USAID does not collect personal
information when you visit our website, unless you choose to provide that
information. However, we do collect some technical information about your visit
to USAID.gov.

We would like to make you aware of a law that provides to you with certain
rights concerning your personal information. This is described in the Privacy
Act of 1974 (as amended by 5 U.S.C. 552a) governing Federal Records. This law
concerns any information held in a Privacy Act System of Records (SOR) that can
be retrieved by a personal identifier such as name, social security number, or
other identifying number or symbol. An individual is entitled to access to his
or her records and to request correction of these records if applicable. The
Privacy Act prohibits disclosure of these records without the written consent of
the individual(s) to whom the records pertain unless one of the twelve
disclosure exceptions enumerated in the Act applies. The actual Act can be found
at this link: http://www.justice.gov/opcl/privstat.htm.

This is how we handle information about your visit to our Web site:


INFORMATION COLLECTED AND STORED AUTOMATICALLY

When you visit USAID.gov, we may store some or all of the following:

 * the IP address from which you accessed our site
 * the date and time
 * the URL of the website from which you linked to our site
 * the name of the file or words you searched for
 * the pages you visited on our site
 * the items clicked on a page
 * the browser and operating system used

We do not collect or track any personal information through these processes. We
use this information, in the aggregate, to make our website more useful to
visitors - to learn about the number of visitors to our site and the types of
technology used, to detect operational problems, and to improve the website's
overall security.


INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO U.S. AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT

You do not have to provide any personal information to view this website.

You may choose to provide your contact information to USAID in order to receive
information such as our agency newsletter or to participate in an on-line
collaboration forum.

USAID will only use your personal information for the purpose for which it was
provided, such as to respond to your message or to provide subscriptions you
have chosen. In certain instances, your comment or suggestion may be forwarded
to other U.S. government agencies or departments if they are in the best
position to respond to your message.

Some of our newsletters are sent using third-party email distribution systems.
In these cases, the email privacy policy will be available to you at the time
you sign up for the newsletter. A link will be provided at the bottom of each
newsletter with instructions on how to unsubscribe.

In certain instances, such as blog comments or discussion groups, the
information you provide may be visible to the public. Please do not share any
personal information that you do not want made available to the public. USAID is
not responsible for how other participants may use your information.

When you voluntarily submit information, it constitutes your consent to the use
of the information for the purpose stated. When you click the “Submit” button on
any of the Web forms found on our sites, you are indicating your voluntary
consent to the use of the information you submit, for the stated purpose.


SECURITY NOTICE

For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to
all users, this government computer system employs software programs to monitor
network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change
information, or otherwise cause damage.

Unauthorized attempts to upload or change information on this site are strictly
prohibited and may be punishable under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986
and the National Information Infrastructure Protection Act (Title 18 U.S.C.,
Sections 1001 and 1030).

If monitoring reveals evidence of possible criminal activity, such evidence may
be provided to law enforcement personnel.


COOKIES

When you visit some websites, their web servers generate pieces of information
known as cookies. Cookies are commonly used to recognize your computer in the
future.

USAID.gov uses single-session cookies to serve technical purposes, like
providing seamless navigation through our site. These cookies do not permanently
record data, and they are not stored on your computer's hard drive. USAID.gov's
session cookies are only available during an active browser session. When you
close your browser, the session cookie disappears.

USAID.gov also uses multi-session cookies to help us understand how people use
the site, and how we can make it better. Traffic statistics are collected
anonymously and aggregated, and no information is traceable to any specific
individual. USAID does not collect PII (personally identifiable information)
such as social security numbers, date or place of birth.

Cookies-Tier 1 (single session) and Tier 2 (multi-session without PII)-are used
on USAID.gov in compliance with OMB Memorandum 10-22, Guidance for Online Use of
Web Measurement and Customization Technologies (PDF). USAID.gov does not use
Tier 3 (multi-session with PII) cookies.

Cookies may also be set by the following third-party providers on USAID.gov

 * Google Analytics:(link is external) A tier 2 cookie sets when the page is
   loaded - used to improve web metrics capabilities.
 * YouTube:(link is external) A tier 2 cookie sets when the video is played -
   used to maintain the integrity of video statistics

Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable
information. You can remove or block cookies by changing the settings of your
browser. For Opt-out instructions relating to cookies, please visit:
http://www.usa.gov/optout_instructions.shtml.

be distributed or copied freely unless identified as being subject to copyright
protection. In return, we request only that USAID be cited as the source of any
information, photos, and images copied from this site and that any photo credits
or bylines be similarly credited to the photographer or author.

We strongly recommend that USAID data be acquired directly from this website and
not through other sources that may change the information in some way or exclude
material crucial to the understanding of that information. While we make every
effort to provide accurate and complete information, some information may change
between site updates.


DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

Every effort is made to provide accurate and complete information. However, with
the thousands of documents available, often uploaded within short deadlines, we
cannot guarantee that there will be no errors. We make no claims, promises, or
guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or adequacy of the contents of this
Web site and expressly disclaim liability for errors and omissions in the
contents of this Web site.

With respect to the content of this site, neither the United States Government,
nor USAID, their employees and contractors make any warranty, expressed or
implied or statutorily, including but not limited to the warranties of
non-infringement of third party rights, title, and the warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose with respect to content
available from this USAID website or other internet resources linked to or from
it.

Additionally, neither the U.S. Government nor USAID assume any legal liability
for the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any information, product, or
process disclosed herein, nor freedom from computer virus; and do not represent
that use of such information, product, or process would not infringe on
privately owned rights.


DISCLAIMER OF ENDORSEMENT

The information posted on USAID.gov includes links to information created and
maintained by other public and/or private organizations. This site provides
these links solely for our users' information and convenience. When users select
a link to an outside website, they are leaving USAID.gov and are subject to the
privacy and security policies of the owners/sponsors of the outside website. The
managers of this site:

 * Do not control or guarantee the accuracy, relevance, timeliness, or
   completeness of information contained on a linked website;
 * Do not endorse the organizations sponsoring linked websites, and we do not
   endorse the views they express or the products/services they offer;
 * Cannot authorize the use of copyrighted materials contained in linked
   websites. Users must request such authorization from the sponsor of the
   linked website;
 * Are not responsible for transmissions users receive from linked websites;
 * Do not guarantee that outside websites comply with Section 508 (Accessibility
   Requirements) of the Rehabilitation Act.

We strongly recommend that you review the policies of any outside websites you
visit from this site, since you will be subject to the privacy and security
policies of those other sites, once you leave USAID.gov.


SOCIAL MEDIA

USAID maintains a blog and profiles on several third-party social media sites.
We are present on these sites in order to tell the story of USAID to the
American public and to host-country audiences.

While we encourage commenting and conversation on our social media profiles,
please remember that they are a public forum and any information provided will
be visible to the public. Please do not include personal details such as your
telephone number, email address, or any other personal information that you do
not want available to the general public.

While some Personally Identifying Information (PII) may become available to
USAID through your use of social media (i.e. we can see your name and picture if
you post a comment), we will not be collecting, sharing, or storing that
information.

Our presence on social media sites is not intended to endorse, recommend, or
favor any third-party company or service provider.

Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (as amended). Section 508 requires that
all individuals with disabilities (whether federal employees or members of the
general public) have access to and use of information and data, comparable to
that provided to individuals without disabilities, unless an undue burden would
be imposed on us. If you use assistive technology (such as a screen reader,
