also ask consumers about their 

preferences for how they would like to 

be contacted by debt collectors, 

opinions about potential regulatory 

interventions in debt collection markets, 

and about their knowledge of their legal 

rights regarding debt collections. The 

information collected through this

Narrative Data 

AGENCY: Bureau of Consumer Financial 

Protection. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed policy 

statement with request for public 

comment. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Consumer 

Financial Protection (‘‘Bureau’’) 

currently discloses certain complaint 

data it receives regarding consumer 

financial products and services via its 

web-based, public-facing database 

(‘‘Consumer Complaint Database’’). The 

Bureau proposes to expand that 

disclosure to include unstructured 

consumer complaint narrative data 

(‘‘narratives’’). Only those narratives for 

which opt-in consumer consent had 

been obtained and a robust personal 

information scrubbing standard and 

methodology applied would be subject 

to disclosure. The proposed policy 

(‘‘Proposed Policy Statement’’) would 

supplement the Bureau’s existing Policy 

Statements establishing and expanding 

the Consumer Complaint Database. 

DATES: Comments regarding the 

Proposed Policy Statement are due on or 

before August 22, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments

Secretary, Consumer Financial 

Protection Bureau, 1275 First Street NE.,
