Privacy Policy
The U.S. Department of Education’s Doing What Works website privacy policy is simple: We collect no personal information about you unless you choose to provide that information to us. We do not give, share, sell or transfer any personal information to a third party.
If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read pages or download information, our website’s operating system will not record any information about your visit.
There are two instances when you will be asked to provide your e-mail to us: when you register for site updates and when you click the e-mail link at the bottom of each page. All information submitted via that form is used only for the expressed purposes. You will not receive additional e-mails from the Department of Education, nor will your information ever be made available to a third party.
If you send us an e-mail, the message will usually contain your return e-mail address. If you include personally identifying information in your e-mail because you want us to address issues specific to your situation, we may use that information in responding to your request. In other limited circumstances, including requests from Congress or limited other parties, we may be required by law to disclose information that you submit. Also, e-mail is not necessarily secure against interception. Please send only information necessary to help us process your request.
The cookies on the Doing What Works Web pages do not collect information about you but only about your browser "session." The cookies make it easier for you to use the interactive features of these Web pages without having to provide the same information again as you move from page to page.
To protect your privacy, be sure to close your browser after you have been to a website that uses cookies. If you are concerned about the potential use of information gathered from your computer by cookies, you can set your browser to prompt you before it accepts a cookie. Most Internet browsers have settings that let you identify and/or reject cookies. You also can clear the cookies from your browser by using the Tools feature at the top of the page.
