(a) Before collecting information from you, NARA will advise you of: (1) The authority for collecting the information and whether providing the information is mandatory or voluntary; (2) The purpose for which the information will be used; (3) The routine uses of the information; and (4) The effect on you, if any, of not providing the information.

(b) If you are asked to provide your SSN, the NARA employee or contractor must first inform you: (1) Whether the disclosure is mandatory or voluntary; (2) The statute or authority under which your SSN is solicited; and (3) How your SSN will be used.

36 C.F.R. § 1202.24 Will NARA ever request information about me from someone else?

All NARA employees and contractors involved in the design, development, operation or maintenance of any system of records must review the provisions of the Privacy Act and the regulations in this part.

36 C.F.R. § 1202.30 How does NARA safeguard its systems of records?

(a) The system manager ensures that appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards are established to ensure the security and confidentiality of records.

Electronic records are protected in accordance with the Computer Security Act, OMB Circular A-11 requiring privacy analysis in reporting to OMB, and are accessed via passwords from terminals located in attended offices. After hours, buildings have security guards and/or doors are secured and all entrances are monitored by electronic surveillance equipment.

(c) The system manager only permits access to and use of automated or manual personnel records to persons whose official duties require such access, or to you or to a representative designated by you.
