Disclaimer of Endorsement (Links to Other Sites)

Websites for CIT may link to websites of other federal agencies, and in some instances, private organizations and research institutions. When you leave CIT websites, you are subject to that site’s privacy policy. While CIT continues to make amendments to its websites in order to comply with Section 508, CIT cannot ensure Section 508 compliance of federal and non-federal websites users may access from links on CIT websites.

Information Disclaimer

The views and opinions of authors expressed on CIT websites do not necessarily state or reflect those of the U.S. Government, and they may not be used for advertising or product endorsement purposes.

Materials meant for public use and posted on CIT websites are developed by or for CIT. Unless stated otherwise, documents and files on CIT websites can be freely downloaded and reproduced. For materials on CIT websites that were not produced by CIT or NIH, their reproduction and use may be subject to U.S. or foreign copyright laws, depending on the document’s origin.

Intrusion Detection

As a site maintained by the U.S. Government, CIT employs software programs to monitor web traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage. This is done to ensure that CIT websites remain available to all users with little to no interruption of service. In the event of authorized law enforcement investigations, and pursuant to any required legal processes, information from sources CIT uses to monitor web traffic may be used to help identify an individual of concern to law enforcement.
