SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. The Privacy Act
Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5
U.S.C. 552a, a ‘‘system of records’’ is
defined as any group of records under
the control of a federal government
agency from which information about
individuals is retrieved by name or
other personal identifier. The Privacy
Act establishes the means by which
government agencies collect, maintain,
and use information that is personally
identifiable in a government system of
records.
Each government agency is required
to publish a notice in the Federal
Register of a system of records in which
the agency identifies and describes each
system of records it maintains, the
reasons why the agency uses the
personally identifying information
therein, the routine uses for which the
agency will disclose such information
outside the agency, and how individuals
may exercise their rights under the
Privacy Act to determine if the system
contains information about them, among
other things.
II. NFA Applications Suite System
(Exempt)
The Commission proposes to revise a
system of records notice (SORN), CFTC–
12, ‘‘Fitness Investigations,’’ and rename
the notice as ‘‘National Futures
Association (NFA) Applications Suite
System (Exempted).’’ The notice revises
the description of the system and
enhancements to more broadly cover the
activities of NFA on behalf of the
Commission by delegated authority and
also covers new data collections for
swap dealers, major swap participants
and retail foreign exchange dealers as
required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform Act and recent Commission
rules. The revised notice also exempts
from certain Privacy Act requirements
those records in this system that refer,
relate to or are from third-party sources
related to fitness or other investigations
of registrants or applicants for
registration. Though subject to change
with future information technology
upgrades, the notice covers activities
that are currently automated by the
following NFA databases and
applications:
