Notice
By
continuing
with
the
PBT
Profiler
I
acknowledge
that
I
have
read
and
accept
the
Terms
of
Use/
Disclaimer
detailed
below.

The
PBT
profiler
was
designed
to
be
a
simple
to
use,
voluntary
screening
tool
that
incorporates
key
methods
developed
for
the
Office
of
Pollution
Prevention
and
Toxics'
P2
Framework.
Using
these
methods,
the
persistence,
bioaccumulation,
and
toxicity
of
organic
chemicals
is
estimated
using
a
combination
of
database
queries
and
background
estimations
that
run
off
a
Microsoft®
NT
World
Wide
Web
(WWW)
server.
One
of
the
major
uses
envisioned
for
the
PBT
Profiler
is
to
identify
Pollution
Prevention
(P2)
opportunities
for
chemical
manufacture
and
formulation;
areas
that
may
involve
the
use
of
proprietary
information.

The
importance
of
providing
persistence,
bioaccumulation,
and
toxicity
data
in
an
easy
to
use,
widely
available
format
has
been
balanced
with
potential
privacy
and
security
issues
throughout
the
development
of
the
PBT
Profiler.
All
connections
to
the
PBT
Profiler
are
done
so
anonymously.
No
user
identification,
chemical
information,
screening
results,
or
any
other
electronic
information
are
purposefully
tracked,
stored,
collected,
or
written
to
a
disk
drive
or
other
permanent
storage
device.
Page
requests
(hits)
to
the
PBT
Profiler
are
not
logged.
The
number
of
times
the
PBT
Profiler
is
used
is
counted
by
recording
only
the
date
(e.
g.,
3/
19/
2000)
the
home
page
is
visited
or
a
profile
is
run.
A
user's
connection
to
or
movement
through
the
PBT
profiler
cannot
be
determined
using
the
industry­
standard
methods
commonly
employed
to
monitor
web­
site
traffic.

The
PBT
Profiler
and
the
server
software
and
hardware
it
runs
off
of
are
not,
however,
considered
secure.
The
security
of
any
and
all
information
transmitted
to,
from,
or
used
by
the
PBT
Profiler,
is
not
assured.
If
additional
technical
details
on
the
operation
and
design
of
the
PBT
Profiler
are
required,
please
contact
the
developers
directly.
