FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

Public Workshop on Consumer

Information Privacy

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice Requesting Public

Comment and Announcing Public

Workshop.

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade

Commission has determined to hold a

public workshop devoted to consumer

information privacy. The workshop will

be divided into three sessions.

Session One is intended to gather

information as part of a Commission

study of the collection, compilation,

sale, and use of computerized data bases

that contain what consumers may

perceive to be sensitive identifying

information, often referred to as ‘‘lookup services.’’ These data bases typically

are used to locate individuals or

develop individual background

information. Interested parties are

encouraged to submit written comments

concerning the subject of this study,

which is described more fully in the

Supplementary Information section of

this Notice. Any person who wishes to

apply for participation in Session One

must file a written comment addressing

one or more of the questions set forth

below under the heading: ‘‘Session One:

Computerized Data Bases Containing

Sensitive Consumer Identifying

Information.’’ However, the Commission

will consider comments of all persons,

including non-participants in Session

One.

Sessions Two and Three follow upon

the Bureau of Consumer Protection’s

June 1996 public workshop on

Consumer Privacy on the Global

Information Infrastructure (‘‘June 1996

Workshop’’), which was held to provide

an opportunity for public dialogue on

the complex privacy issues posed by the

emerging online marketplace. Sessions

Two and Three are intended to update

the Commission on the current status of

the collection, compilation, sale, and

use of personal information online, and

on self-regulatory efforts and

technological developments since June

1996. Session Two will address recent

developments in the collection,

compilation, sale, and use of personal

information online generally, including

self-regulatory efforts, technological

innovations, and unsolicited

commercial e-mail. Session Three will

address the same developments as they

pertain to children’s personal

information.

Interested parties who wish to apply

for participation in Session Two must

file a written comment addressing one

or more of the questions listed below

under the heading ‘‘Session Two:

Consumer Online Privacy.’’ Interested

parties who wish to apply for

participation in Session Three must file

a written comment addressing one or

more of the questions listed below

under the heading ‘‘Session Three:

Children’s Online Privacy.’’ However,

Commission staff will consider

comments of all persons, including nonparticipants in Session Two or Session

Three, in determining what further

Commission action, if any, it will

recommend in the area of online privacy

protections.

DATES: Written comments and

notifications of interest in participating

in the workshop must be submitted on

or before April 15, 1997. Parties may

apply to participate in more than one

workshop session. Notifications of

interest must specify the session(s) in

which participation is sought.

Requesters will be notified as soon as

possible after May 15, 1997, if they have

been selected to participate. The

workshop will be held on June 10–13,

1997 in Room 432 of the Commission’s

headquarters building, Sixth Street &

Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.,

Washington, D.C. 20580. The tentative
