SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Comment Period Extension
On April 4, 2019, the Commission
published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for the Safeguards Rule (84
FR 13158), with a deadline for filing
comments of June 3, 2019. On April 23,
2019, the National Automobile Dealers
Association and the National
Independent Automobile Dealers
Association requested that the comment
period be extended for 90 days, until
September 1, 2019, in order to give
commenters sufficient time to respond
to the extensive requests for comment
found in the Notice. On the same day,
EDUCAUSE, which represents members
of the information technology field in
higher education, requested a 60-day
extension, until August 2, for the same
reason. On April 26, 2019, the American
Financial Services Association
requested a 90-day extension.
The Commission agrees that allowing
additional time for filing comments on
the Safeguards Rule would help
facilitate the creation of a more
complete record. The Commission has
therefore decided to extend the
comment period for 60 days, to August
2, 2019. Although some requesters
asked for a 90-day extension, the
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
proposed rule was announced and made
available on the Commission website on
March 5, 30 days before it was
published in the Federal Register, and
the Commission provided a 60-day
period for comment rather than 30 days.
Thus, the deadline of August 2, 2019, is
four months after the proposed rule was
published in the Federal Register, and
five months after the proposed rule was
first announced on the Commission’s
website. A 60-day extension provides
commenters adequate time to consider
the proposed rule while not unduly
delaying the rulemaking process.
II. Request for Comment
You can file a comment online or on
paper. For the Commission to consider
your comment, we must receive it on or
before August 2, 2019. Write
‘‘Safeguards Rule, 16 CFR part 314,
Project No. 145407’’ on the comment.
Your comment, including your name
and your state, will be placed on the
public record of this proceeding,
including the https://
www.regulations.gov website.
Postal mail addressed to the
Commission is subject to delay due to
heightened security screening. As a
result, we encourage you to submit your
comment online. To make sure that the
Commission considers your online
comment, you must file it at https://
www.regulations.gov by following the
instructions on the web-based form.
If you file your comment on paper,
write ‘‘Safeguards Rule, 16 CFR part
314, Project No. P145407’’ on your
comment and on the envelope, and mail
your comment to the following address:
Federal Trade Commission, Office of the
Secretary, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue
NW, Suite CC–5610 (Annex B),
Washington, DC 20580; or deliver your
comment to the following address:
Federal Trade Commission, Office of the
Secretary, Constitution Center, 400 7th
Street SW, 5th Floor, Suite 5610 (Annex
B), Washington, DC 20024. If possible,
please submit your paper comment to
the Commission by courier or overnight
service.
Because your comment will be placed
on the publicly accessible website,
https://www.regulations.gov, you are
solely responsible for making sure that
your comment does not include any
sensitive or confidential information. In
particular, your comment should not
include any sensitive personal
information, such as your or anyone

else’s Social Security number, date of
birth, driver’s license number or other
state identification number or foreign
country equivalent, passport number,
financial account number, or credit or

responsible for making sure that your
comment does not include any sensitive
health information, such as medical
records or other individually
identifiable health information. In
addition, your comment should not
include any ‘‘trade secret or any
commercial or financial information
which . . . is privileged or
confidential,’’ as provided by section
6(f) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. 46(f), and
FTC Rule 4.10(a)(2), 16 CFR 4.10(a)(2),
including in particular, competitively
sensitive information such as costs,
sales statistics, inventories, formulas,
patterns, devices, manufacturing
processes, or customer names.
Comments containing material for
which confidential treatment is
requested must be filed in paper form,
must be clearly labeled ‘‘Confidential,’’
and must comply with FTC Rule 4.9(c).
In particular, the written request for
confidential treatment that accompanies
the comment must include the factual
and legal basis for the request, and must
identify the specific portions of the
comment to be withheld from the public
record. Your comment will be kept
confidential only if the FTC General
Counsel grants your request in
accordance with the law and the public
interest. Once your comment has been
posted on the https://
www.regulations.gov website, we cannot
redact or remove your comment from
the website, unless you submit a
confidentiality request that meets the
requirements for such treatment under
FTC Rule 4.9(c), and the General
Counsel grants that request.
Visit the Commission website at
https://www.ftc.gov to read this
document and the news release
describing it. The FTC Act and other
laws that the Commission administers
permit the collection of public
comments to consider and use in this
proceeding as appropriate. The
Commission will consider all timely
and responsive public comments that it
receives on or before August 2, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Comment Period Extension
On April 4, 2019, the Commission published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for the Safeguards Rule (84 FR 13158), with a deadline for
filing comments of June 3, 2019. On April 23, 2019, the National
Automobile Dealers Association and the National Independent Automobile
Dealers Association requested that the comment period be extended for
90 days, until September 1, 2019, in order to give commenters
sufficient time to respond to the extensive requests for comment found
in the Notice. On the same day, EDUCAUSE, which represents members of
the information technology field in higher education, requested a 60-
day extension, until August 2, for the same reason. On April 26, 2019,
the American Financial Services Association requested a 90-day
extension.
The Commission agrees that allowing additional time for filing
comments on the Safeguards Rule would help facilitate the creation of a
more complete record. The Commission has therefore decided to extend
the comment period for 60 days, to August 2, 2019. Although some
requesters asked for a 90-day extension, the proposed rule was
announced and made available on the Commission website on March 5, 30
days before it was published in the Federal Register, and the
Commission provided a 60-day period for comment rather than 30 days.
Thus, the deadline of August 2, 2019, is four months after the proposed
rule was published in the Federal Register, and five months after the
proposed rule was first announced on the Commission's website. A 60-day
extension provides commenters adequate time to consider the proposed
rule while not unduly delaying the rulemaking process.
II. Request for Comment
You can file a comment online or on paper. For the Commission to
consider your comment, we must receive it on or before August 2, 2019.
Write ``Safeguards Rule, 16 CFR part 314, Project No. 145407'' on the
comment. Your comment, including your name and your state, will be
placed on the public record of this proceeding, including the https://www.regulations.gov website.
Postal mail addressed to the Commission is subject to delay due to
heightened security screening. As a result, we encourage you to submit
your comment online. To make sure that the Commission considers your
online comment, you must file it at https://www.regulations.gov by
following the instructions on the web-based form.
If you file your comment on paper, write ``Safeguards Rule, 16 CFR
part 314, Project No. P145407'' on your comment and on the envelope,
and mail your comment to the following address: Federal Trade
Commission, Office of the Secretary, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Suite
CC-5610 (Annex B), Washington, DC 20580; or deliver your comment to the
following address: Federal Trade Commission, Office of the Secretary,
Constitution Center, 400 7th Street SW, 5th Floor, Suite 5610 (Annex
B), Washington, DC 20024. If possible, please submit your paper comment
to the Commission by courier or overnight service.
Because your comment will be placed on the publicly accessible
website, https://www.regulations.gov, you are solely responsible for
making sure that your comment does not include any sensitive or
confidential information. In particular, your comment should not
include any sensitive personal information, such as your or anyone

else's Social Security number, date of birth, driver's license number
or other state identification number or foreign country equivalent,
passport number, financial account number, or credit or debit card
number. You are also solely responsible for making sure that your
comment does not include any sensitive health information, such as
medical records or other individually identifiable health information.
In addition, your comment should not include any ``trade secret or any
commercial or financial information which . . . is privileged or
confidential,'' as provided by section 6(f) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C.
46(f), and FTC Rule 4.10(a)(2), 16 CFR 4.10(a)(2), including in
particular, competitively sensitive information such as costs, sales
statistics, inventories, formulas, patterns, devices, manufacturing
processes, or customer names.
Comments containing material for which confidential treatment is
requested must be filed in paper form, must be clearly labeled
``Confidential,'' and must comply with FTC Rule 4.9(c). In particular,
the written request for confidential treatment that accompanies the
comment must include the factual and legal basis for the request, and
must identify the specific portions of the comment to be withheld from
the public record. Your comment will be kept confidential only if the
FTC General Counsel grants your request in accordance with the law and
