Authority and Confidentiality


Title 13, United States Code, Sections 131, 182, and 193, authorizes this collection. Sections 224 and 225 require your response. The U.S. Census Bureau is required by Section 9 of the same law to keep your information confidential and use your responses only to produce statistics. The Census Bureau is not permitted to publicly release your responses in a way that could identify your business, organization, or institution. Per the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015, your data are protected from cybersecurity risks through screening of the systems that transmit your data.

We estimate the Business and Professional Classification Survey will take an average of 13 minutes to complete. Factors such as company size, complexity and activity will affect your actual time to complete the survey.  This estimate includes the time to review instructions, search existing data sources, gather and maintain the data needed, and complete and review the survey.
