This database contains information needed to manage the loaning of library material. There is no permanent record linking a user to library material after the book has been returned if there are no outstanding charges. The Libraries may provide information to third parties under contract to the University in order to obtain payment of fees or return of library materials. General Request for Services or Information Information is retained only long enough to respond to your request. Some requests may result in the addition of personal information to the Libraries circulation database e.g., registering for email notification.
Information is maintained in order to respond to user requests and to manage billing.
The Libraries may provide information to third parties working for us to obtain payment of fees or return of library materials. My Gateway provides for customized web pages and Zephyr maintains user profiles that are used to provide customized information about new library resources. Both of these services are optional and users may discontinue these services at any time - at that point all records are deleted. The Libraries uses temporary cookies to track session characteristics on the Information Gateway and the Web Catalog. No personally identifiable information is received or kept and no persistent cookies are placed on users' computers.
