NM-INBRE makes no effort to identify users of
our site. No identifying data is disclosed
to any third party for any purpose and data
that we collect is used exclusively for
generating usage statistics, error tracking,
and server administration.
This statement does not apply to e-mail sent
to NM-INBRE staff or collaborators.
E-mail communications are governed by
Netiquette Guidelines.
Any questions regarding the Web site and
Site Privacy Policy should be directed to

We log HTTP requests to our server. This
means that we
know the originating
IP address of a user agent requesting a
URL--unless the request was sent via a web
proxy, in which case, the proxy's IP
address is known.
However, if someone has forged your
address the log file will reflect your
address rather than that of the originating
client.
Our logging is passive; we do not use
technologies such as cookies to maintain
any information about users.
Logging of additional data may be enabled
temporarily for specific purposes (e.g.:
server administration or security).
Logged information may be kept indefinitely
as admistrative and research material; it is
not disclosed outside of NM-INBRE. We
occasionally analyze the log files to
determine which files are most requested
and the user agent which prompted the
request. The aggregate (completely
non-identifying) statistics generated from
these logs may be reported to our
collaborators and/or funding agencies as
part of research results.
Some of the sites linked to by NM-INBRE Web
pages are developed by people over whom
NM-INBRE exercises no control. Other sites
may set their own cookies, collect data,
or solicit personal information. Refer to
their Privacy Policy to ensure your personal
privacy is not violated.
Be aware that most browsers are initially
configured to accept cookies. You can reset
your browser to refuse all cookies or to
indicate when a cookie is being sent.
WITH WHOM DOES NM-INBRE SHARE INFORMATION?
NM-INBRE may share information about you
with research partners and sponsors.
However, we only divulge aggregate
information about our users and will not
share personally identifiable information
with any third party without your express
consent. Please be aware, however, that we
may release specific personal information
about you if required to do so in order to
comply with any valid legal process such as
a search warrant, subpoena, statute, or
court order, or as part of investigations
of computer misuse involving this site.
YOUR CONSENT AND CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
By using the NM-INBRE Web sites, you consent
to the collection and use of your information
as we have outlined in this policy. NM-INBRE
may change this Privacy Policy. When we do,
those changes shall be posted on this page
so that you are always aware of the
information we collect, how we use it,
and under what circumstances we disclose it.
