Abstract: Section 502 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (Act), Public Law No. 106-102, prohibits a financial institution from disclosing nonpublic personal information about a consumer to nonaffiliated third parties unless the institution satisfies various disclosure requirements (i.e., provides a privacy notice and opt out notice) and the consumer has not elected to opt out of the disclosure. Section 504 of the Act requires the OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, OTS, NCUA, FTC, and SEC to issue regulations as necessary to implement the notice requirements and restrictions.

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: OTS is citing a decrease in the number of institutions, an increase in de novos and acquisition and an increase in the number of consumers. Consumers use the privacy notice information to determine whether they want personal information disclosed to third parties that are not affiliated with the institution. Further, consumers use the opt-out notice mechanism to advise the institution of their wishes regarding disclosure of their personal information. Institutions use the opt-out information to determine the wishes of their consumers and to act appropriately.
