What does "[Not a Census web site]" mean?

Many of our pages link to sites that are not created or supported by the Foreign Trade Division of the U.S. Census Bureau. While we do not maintain, control or claim responsibility for the content on these pages, we hope that they will be useful in your research.

All of the web pages we control have addresses that begin with "http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/".
