Cookies and Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors find and use our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as page views, session activity, approximate location, browser and device information, and traffic sources.
Google Analytics may place a first-party cookie named _ga on your device to distinguish visitors and sessions. Google Analytics uses IP addresses to derive general location information, but Google states that IP addresses are discarded before being logged or stored.
We use this information to evaluate website performance, improve navigation and content, and better understand which resources are useful to visitors. We do not use Google Analytics for advertising personalization, remarketing, or targeted advertising. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, telephone numbers, contact-form contents, or sensitive health or disability information to Google Analytics.
Analytics user-level and event-level information is retained for up to 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted according to our Google Analytics settings. Aggregated reports may remain available for a longer period.
You can decline nonessential analytics cookies through our website’s cookie settings. You may also prevent Google Analytics from using your information by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Information about how Google processes data is available in Google’s Privacy Policy.
Google Search Console
We use Google Search Console to monitor how our website appears and performs in Google Search. Search Console may provide us with reports containing search queries, impressions, clicks, general location, device category, and the pages displayed in search results.
Search Console reports are generally aggregated, and Google may omit rare queries or other information to help protect user privacy. We use these reports to identify website issues and improve the usefulness and accessibility of our content.
Analytics Service Providers
We disclose limited website usage information to Google in connection with Google Analytics and Google Search Console. Google processes this information according to its terms and privacy practices.
We do not sell personal information or use Google Analytics information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
How We Disclose Information
We may disclose information to:
Website hosting, contact-form, email, security, and technology providers that perform services on our behalf
Professional advisers, such as attorneys or accountants, when reasonably necessary
Government agencies or other parties when required by law
Appropriate parties when necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of CIS, website visitors, or others
A successor organization in connection with a merger, restructuring, or transfer of operations
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to requests, provide information or services, maintain appropriate records, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes.
Contact-form submissions are generally retained indefinitely.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Privacy Choices
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have submitted through the website. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Some information may be retained when permitted or required by law.

Do Not Track and Privacy Signals
Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is no universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to traditional Do Not Track settings.
Where required by applicable law, we honor recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through the website.
Parents, guardians, and authorized representatives may contact us about services for a child. If we learn that a child under 13 submitted personal information directly without appropriate permission, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to government agencies and other third-party websites. CIS does not control those websites and is not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. Please review the privacy policy of each website you visit.
