SUMMARY: FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 55489 OMB Control Number: 3084–0121. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Abstract: The GLB Privacy Rule is designed to ensure that customers and consumers, subject to certain exceptions, will have access to the privacy policies of the financial institutions with which they conduct business. As mandated by the GrammLeach-Bliley Act, 15 U.S.C. 6801–6809, the Rule implements consumer disclosure requirements that are subject to the provisions of the PRA. The Rule requires financial institutions to disclose to consumers: (1) Initial notice of the financial institution’s privacy policy when establishing a customer relationship with a consumer and/or before sharing a consumer’s non-public personal information with certain nonaffiliated third parties; (2) notice of the consumer’s right to opt out of information sharing with such parties; (3) annual notice of the institution’s privacy policy to any continuing customer; 1 and (4) notice of changes in the institution’s practices on information sharing. The Rule does not require recordkeeping. For PRA burden calculations the FTC has attributed to itself the burden for all motor vehicle dealers and then shares equally the remaining PRA burden with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) for other types of financial institutions for which both agencies have enforcement authority regarding the GLB Privacy Rule. On June 19, 2014, the Commission sought comment on the Rule’s information collection requirements.2 The Commission did not receive any comments. As required by OMB regulations, 5 CFR 1320, the FTC is providing this second opportunity for public comment. Estimated annual hours burden: 1,515,050 annual hours (FTC portion). As noted in previous burden estimates for the GLB Privacy Rule, determining the PRA burden of the Rule’s disclosure requirements is very 1 The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has proposed amending Regulation P, to create an alternative delivery method for this annual disclosure, which financial institutions would be able to use under certain conditions. See 79 FR 27214 (May 13, 2014). Specifically, the CFPB proposes allowing financial institutions that do not engage in certain types of information-sharing activities to stop mailing an annual disclosure if they post the annual notices on their Web sites and meet certain other criteria. A financial institution would still be required to mail a disclosure if the institution, among other things, has changed its privacy practices or engages in information-sharing activities for which customers have a right to opt out. 2 See 79 FR 35158 (60-Day Federal Register Notice).
