II. The Privacy Act 

Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5

individuals is retrieved by name or by 

some identifying number, symbol, or

the individual. The Privacy Act

Register in which the agency identifies 

and describes each system of records it 

maintains, the reasons why the agency 

uses the information therein, the routine 

uses for which the agency will disclose 

such information outside the agency, 

and how individuals may exercise their 

rights under the Privacy Act.
