Collection of Browser Information in Missouri

Based on the provided documents, there are no specific regulations in Missouri that prohibit the collection of browser information from participants. However, there are privacy and security requirements that must be followed to ensure that the privacy and security of individuals are not violated [1.1].

If you plan to collect browser information, you must ensure that you comply with the following requirements:

  1. Completeness and Accuracy: To meet accuracy and completeness requirements, the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Criminal Records Division has been designated by state law as the central repository of criminal history record information for the state. For the purpose of maintaining complete and accurate criminal history record information, all police officers of this state, the clerk of each court, the Department of Corrections, the sheriff of each county, the chief law enforcement official of a city not within a county and the prosecuting attorney of each county or the circuit attorney of a city not within a county shall submit certain criminal arrest, charge and disposition information to the central repository for filing without undue delay (within thirty (30) days) in the form and manner required by sections 43.500–43.530, RSMo [1.1].
  2. Dissemination: Criminal justice agencies shall receive complete criminal history record information for criminal justice purposes and criminal justice employment purposes. Noncriminal justice agencies or citizens shall receive criminal history record information for employment, licensing purposes or reasons stated in the request. Federal noncriminal justice agencies shall receive complete criminal history record information for those investigative purposes as authorized by law or presidential executive order [1.1].
  3. Security of CHRI: Agencies providing security must be mindful of computer software and hardware, restriction of file access and safeguard policies regarding computer operation in the following areas: protection through proper storage, protection through computer programs, legitimate destruction of records, detection of unauthorized penetration of programs or files, and protection of security and protection from destruction. Agencies must screen prospective employees who will have access to criminal history record information and be responsible for transferring or removing personnel in cases of violation. The agency must institute manual procedures for physical and data security, institute manual procedures to prevent file destruction and limit direct access to criminal history record information. Each employee working with or having access to criminal history record information shall be made familiar with the substance and intent of these regulations [1.1].

Based on the above requirements, it is important to ensure that any browser information collected is kept secure and only used for the intended purpose. Additionally, individuals have the right to access and review any personal information collected about them and challenge any inaccuracies [1.1][2.1].

It is important to note that these requirements are specific to criminal history record information and may not apply to the collection of browser information. However, it is recommended to follow these guidelines to ensure the privacy and security of individuals are not violated.

Therefore, based on the provided documents, there are no specific requirements for collecting browser information in Missouri. However, it is recommended to follow the privacy and security requirements outlined in [1.1] to ensure the privacy and security of individuals are not violated.
