Department of Defense Privacy Program

The Department of Defense (DoD) proposes to revise its Privacy regulation to implement the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended. The rule will also implement changes which conform to the requirements of the Office of Management and Budget Circular A-108, December 23, 2016. This part establishes and promotes uniformity in the DoD Privacy Program, creating a single privacy rule for the Department, while incorporating other administrative changes. It would take precedence over all DoD component publications that supplement and implement the DoD Privacy program. DoD plans to remove individual component rulemakings in this area as subsequent actions.
