PRIVACY NOTICE
 
 

This section of the page explains how the Integrated Water and Coastal Resources Management IQC 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, we collect and store only the following information about you: the name of the domain from which you access the Internet (for example, aol.com, if you are connecting from an America Online account, or iowa.edu if you are connecting from the University of Iowa's domain); 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 help us make our Web site more useful to visitors.

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). This gathering and storing of information is separate from the activity described as monitoring in our Security Notice.

You may also choose to contact us through this site asking a question or providing us with a comment or suggestion, such as through our CONTACTS page or E-mail at info-wateriqc@dai.com. If you send us a message through this site, we will use personally identifying information to respond to your comment or suggestion, as well as to count the number of people sending us messages.
