If you have questions or concerns about our Internet privacy policy, or any other issues involving the Internet, we want to hear about them and hope you will contact us, by electronic mail, telephone, or mail, to let us know your opinions.
The basic Internet privacy policy is simple: this 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. Let us describe more specifically the type of information that may be gathered when you visit our web site and how that information is handled.
Information Collected and Stored Automatically
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
No individual identifying or personal information (such as your name) is automatically gathered when you visit any Senate web site. This web site does not use 'cookies' or other means to track your visit to our site in any way.

If You Send Us Personal Information
This website is set up not to collect any personal information about you when you visit the site, unless you choose to provide that information to us. Information provided will be treated confidentially by my staff and me.
When you request assistance in resolving an issue, the information you provide may be shared with other government agencies to resolve your issue. Other than when needed to perform constituent casework at your request, or in the course of a legal proceeding, authorized law enforcement investigation, or matter posing a risk to health or public safety, my office will not share information submitted to this office to any outside organization or individual.”
Links to Other Sites
This web site has links to other useful sites on the Internet, including sites of other government agencies and sites relating to the Republican Party, its agenda, and its members. 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.
