The Health Initiative monitors the number of visits (hits) to our web site and uses this information internally. Only data on the visitor's originating domain and number of hits are gathered. No personal information is gathered from those who simply visit our site.

Users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (e.g., user name, e-mail address, mailing address) in e-mail correspondence, that information, along with any substantive information, will be used solely to correspond with the user and only if the user has first requested such action. This information is not distributed to outside parties.

The Health Initiative site may let you leave the home web site to visit linked sites (hyperlinked web sites).
