SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, and as part of its biennial System of Records review, NASA is making the following minor modifications of its system of records Exchange Records on Individuals/NASA 10XROI: Inclusion of a statement of purpose for the system of records; updates of system and subsystem managers; clarification of routine uses; and correction of previous typographical errors. Further, NASA [[Page 81374]] proposes to rescind its separate system of records Johnson Space Center Exchange Activities Records/JSC 72XOPR (October 17, 2011, 76 FR 64115) because all information contained in these records is adequately described by NASA 10XROI, revised herein. Renee P. Wynn, NASA Chief Information Officer. NASA 10XROI SYSTEM NAME: Exchange Records on Individuals. SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: None. SYSTEM LOCATION: Locations 1-9, 11, 12, 18, and 19, as set forth in Appendix A. CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM: This system maintains information on present and former employees of, and applicants for employment with, NASA Exchanges, recreational associations, and employees' clubs at NASA Centers; and civil servants and contractors, and their dependents, who are members of or participants in NASA Exchange programs, activities, clubs and/or recreational associations. Finally, the system maintains information on children, and their parents or guardians, who participate in Exchange- operated child care and educational development programs. CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: For present and former employees of NASA Exchange entities including child care and educational development center programs, records in the system relate to personnel actions and determinations during their application to and employment by the NASA Exchange. Records contain information about individuals and their employment such as name, birth date, Social Security Number, home contact information, marital status, references, veteran preference, tenure, disabilities, position description, unemployment claims; salary, leave and payroll deduction information; and job performance and personnel actions. For civil servants, contractors, and others who apply for and participate in Exchange-sponsored programs, activities, clubs and/or recreational associations, records include employee or contractor identification number, organization, location, telephone number, and other information directly related to status or interest in participation in such activities. For civil servant or contractor dependents who apply for Exchange scholarships, records in the system include information such as parents' home and work address and telephone numbers, income, and financial assistance they will provide the student; the student's high school and colleges applied to, high school graduation date, class ranking, and transcripts; and student community activities and personal goals. For current or former participants in Exchange-operated child care and development centers, records in the system include identification and other information facilitating enrollment in the entity and proper care of the children. Specific records include information such as home and work addresses, email addresses, and telephone numbers; financial payment information; emergency contact names, addresses and telephone numbers; children's names and pictures as well as their health care and insurance providers; medical histories; physical, emotional, or other special care requirements; and child care and educational development center correspondence with parents/guardians such as authorizations to release the child to another person or field trip permission slips. AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM: 51 U.S.C. 20113(a) and (c)(5); 44 U.S.C. 3101; and 40 U.S.C. 590. PURPOSE(S): Records in this system are used to facilitate individuals' participation in and use of NASA Exchange programs and fitness and childcare facilities; for application evaluation and award of Exchange higher education scholarships; and to execute personnel actions and determinations for applicants to, and employees of, the Exchange entities at NASA Centers. ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND THE PURPOSE OF SUCH USES: Any disclosures of information will be compatible with the purpose for which the Agency collected the information. The following are routine uses: (1) To provide information to insurance carriers with regard to worker's compensation, health and accident, and retirement insurance coverages; (2) to provide employment or credit information to third parties as requested by a current or former Exchange employee to whom the records pertain; (3) to provide various Federal, State, and local taxing authorities itemized listing of withholdings for individual income taxes; (4) to respond to State employment compensation requests for wage and separation data on former employees; (5) to report previous job injuries to worker's compensation organizations; (6) for person to notify in an emergency; (7) to report unemployment records to appropriate State and local authorities; and (8) NASA standard routine uses as set forth in Appendix B. POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORING, RETRIEVING, ACCESSING, RETAINING, AND DISPOSING OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM: STORAGE: Records in this system are maintained on electronic media and/or as hard-copy documents. RETRIEVABILITY: All records are retrieved from the system by the individual's name. For children or parents/guardians associated with child care facilities, records may be retrieved by either the child's or parent's/ guardian's name. SAFEGUARDS: Electronic records are maintained on secure NASA servers and protected in accordance with all Federal standards and those established in NASA regulations at 14 CFR 1212.605. Additionally, server and data management environments employ infrastructure encryption technologies both in data transmission and at rest on servers. Approved security plans are in place for information systems containing the records in accordance with the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) and OMB Circular A-130, Management of Federal Information Resources. Only authorized personnel requiring information in the official discharge of their duties are authorized access to records through approved access or authentication methods. Access to electronic records is achieved only from workstations within the NASA Intranet or via a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection that requires two-factor hardware token authentication or via employee PIV badge authentication from NASA- issued computers. Non-electronic records are secured in locked rooms or files. RETENTION AND DISPOSAL: Records are maintained in Agency files and destroyed in accordance with NASA Records Retention Schedules, Schedule 9 Item 6/D.
