Paperwork Reduction Act
US–VISIT, through TSA and CBP, is
requiring aliens to provide biometric
data in certain limited circumstances
described above. This requirement is
considered an information collection
requirement under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.).
The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act, has
previously approved this information
collection for use. The OMB control
number for this collection is 1600–0006.
The fingerprint collection covered by
1600–0006 is unchanged from
previously published documentation.
Privacy
The US–VISIT air exit pilots use,
collect, and share personally
identifiable information (PII) in
accordance with the US–VISIT/IDENT
System of Records Notice (SORN),
applicable privacy impact assessments
(PIAs), privacy laws, regulations,
guidance, agreements, and best practices
to ensure that individual privacy is
appropriately protected. The US–VISIT
Privacy Office published a
comprehensive PIA on May 27, 2009,
that includes the assessment for the
elements being tested in the air exit
pilots that addresses the use, collection,
and retention of PII associated with the
pilots, identifies possible risks and
proposes mitigating strategies. The PIA
was reviewed and approved by the
Director of US–VISIT and the DHS Chief
Privacy Officer. The PIA was published
on the DHS public Web site at http://
www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/privacy/
privacy_pia_usvisit_air_exit.pdf.
The DHS Chief Privacy Officer, in
conjunction with the US–VISIT Privacy
Officer, exercises oversight of the US–
VISIT program to ensure that the
information maintained by US–VISIT is
appropriately protected under privacy
laws and guidance. DHS has established
procedures to ensure the security,
accuracy, relevance, timeliness, and
completeness of all information
maintained by US–VISIT. Information is
safeguarded in terms of applicable rules
and policies, including DHS policies for
automated systems security and access.
Only those persons with an official need
to know information for the
performance of their duties have access.
Records of all individuals, including
non-U.S. citizens, are protected in
accordance with applicable privacy
laws and regulations.
Individuals, including non-U.S.
citizens, who wish to contest or seek an
amendment of their records may submit
an inquiry via the DHS Traveler Redress

Inquiry Program (DHS TRIP), a Webbased portal available at http://
www.dhs.gov/trip, or by writing to the
US–VISIT program office and sending a
fax to (202) 298–5201 or an e-mail to
[email protected]. A mailed
inquiry may be sent to the following
address: Privacy Officer, US–VISIT,
National Protection and Programs
Directorate, Department of Homeland
Security, Washington, DC 20528.
However, because security concerns
occasionally cause mail delays, the
other communication methods are
preferred and may result in quicker
responses. The request should include
the requester’s full name, current
address, date of birth, and a detailed
explanation of the amendment sought.

can be found at http://www.dhs.gov/

If the matter cannot be resolved by the
US–VISIT Privacy Officer, further
appeal for resolution may be made to
