Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary of Defense, DoD.

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of the Secretary of Defense proposes to modify a 
system of records titled, ``Joint Advertising, Market Research & 
Studies (JAMRS) Survey Database,'' DHRA 05. JAMRS is an official 
Department of Defense program responsible for joint marketing 
communications and market research and studies. One of JAMRS' 
objectives is to explore the perceptions, beliefs, and attitudes of 
American youth as they relate to joining the Military. Understanding 
these factors is critical to the success of sustaining an All-Volunteer 
Force and helps ensure recruiting efforts are directed in the most 
efficient and beneficial manner.

DATES: Comments will be accepted on or before November 26, 2018. This 
proposed action will be effective the date following the end of the 
comment period unless comments are received which result in a contrary 
determination.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by any of the following methods:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. Luz D. Ortiz, Chief, Records, 
Privacy and Declassification Division (RPDD), 1155 Defense Pentagon, 
Washington, DC 20311-1155, or by phone at (571) 372-0478.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) 
proposes to modify a system of records subject to the Privacy Act of 
1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a. This system assists DoD marketing communications 
programs increase awareness of military service as a career option by 
compiling names of young adults aged 16 through maximum recruiting age 
to create a mailing frame from which to conduct surveys. These surveys 
are conducted multiple times a year and each survey is designed so that 
appropriate levels of precision can be achieved for inferences to be 
made at various geographic levels. The system also provides JAMRS with 
the ability to remove the names of individuals who are current/former 
members of, or are enlisting in, the Armed Forces and individuals who 
have asked to be removed from consideration as a participant in any 
future JAMRS survey. Multiple departments throughout the Federal 
Government rely on the research conducted by JAMRS, which is frequently 
reported to Congress. As a result of reviewing this system of records, 
the modification reformats the system of records notice (SORN), updates 
the system location, system manager, routine uses, record access 
procedures, contesting record procedures, and notification procedures.
    The OSD notices for systems of records subject to the Privacy Act 
of 1974, as amended, have been published in the Federal Register and 
are available from the address in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or at 
the Defense Privacy, Civil Liberties, and Transparency Division website 
at https://defense.gov/privacy.
    The proposed systems reports, as required by the Privacy Act, as 
amended, were submitted on July 20, 2018, to the House Committee on 
Oversight and Government Reform, the Senate Committee on Homeland 
Security and Governmental Affairs, and the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) pursuant to Section 6 to OMB Circular No. A-108, ``Federal 
Agency Responsibilities for Review, Reporting, and Publication under 
the Privacy Act,'' revised December 23, 2016 (December 23, 2016, 81 FR 
94424).

    Dated: October 22, 2018.

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM:
    To compile names of individuals aged 16 through maximum recruiting 
age to create a mailing frame from which to conduct surveys. These 
surveys will be conducted multiple times per year and each survey will 
be designed so that appropriate levels of precision can be achieved for 
inferences to be made at various geographic levels. The system also 
provides JAMRS with the ability to remove the names of individuals who 
are current/former members of, or are enlisting in, the Armed Forces, 
and individuals who have asked to be removed from consideration as a 
participant in any future JAMRS survey.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    Individuals aged 16 through maximum recruiting age; Selective 
Service System registrants; individuals who have taken the Armed

who are in the process of enlisting or enrolled in ROTC (commonly known

name, date of birth, and current address of the individual.
    Opt-Out requests will be honored until the individual is no longer

in part, on the current address of the individual, any change in 
address will require the submission of a new opt-out request with the 
new address.
