Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC or Commission) is republishing two existing System of Record Notices (SORNs): CFTC-39, Freedom of Information Act Requests and CFTC-40, Privacy Act Requests. The modification will add three routine uses, clarify existing routine uses, and bring the SORNs in compliance with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-108 SORN template. Two of the new routine uses pertain to sharing information to mitigate a breach and are required by OMB Memorandum 17-12. The third new routine use is requested by the Office of Government Information Services (OGIS) to allow disclosure of personally identifiable information to OGIS for Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) dispute resolution and compliance review purposes. Other updates include identifying the specific routine uses applicable to each of the systems of records rather than relying on CFTC's previously published blanket routine uses, and administrative updates to comply with the OMB Circular A-108 SORN template format.
