If this information is not collected, vital feedback from customers and stakeholders on CISA’s services will be unavailable. CISA will only submit a collection for approval under this generic clearance if it meets the following conditions: 1. The collections are voluntary; 2. The collections are low-burden for respondents (based on considerations of total burden hours, total number of respondents, or burden-hours per respondent) and are low-cost for both the respondents and the Federal Government; 3. The collections are noncontroversial and do not raise issues of concern to other Federal agencies; 4. Any collection is targeted to the solicitation of opinions from respondents who have experience with the program or may have experience with the program in the near future; 5. Personally identifiable information is collected only to the extent necessary and is not retained; 6. Information gathered is intended to be used only internally for general service improvement and program management purposes and is not intended for release outside of the CISA (if released, CISA must indicate the qualitative nature of the information); 7. Information gathered will not be used for the purpose of substantially informing influential policy decisions; and 8. Information gathered will yield qualitative information; the collections will not be designed or expected to yield statistically reliable results or used as though the results are generalizable to the population of study. Feedback collected under this generic clearance will provide useful information, but it will not yield data that can be generalized to the overall population. This type of generic clearance for qualitative information will not be used for quantitative information collections that are designed to yield reliably actionable results, such as monitoring trends over time or documenting program performance.
