SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Fair Credit Reporting Affiliate 

Marketing. 

OMB Control No.: 1557–0230. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

541,860. 

Total Annual Burden: 16,559 hours. 

Description: Twelve CFR part 41, 

subpart C generally prohibits a person 

from using certain information received 

from an affiliate to make a solicitation 

for marketing purposes to a consumer 

unless the consumer is given notice of 

that potential use and an opportunity 

and a reasonably simple method to opt 

out of such solicitations. 

Financial institutions will use the 

required notices to inform consumers 

about their rights under section 624 of 

Fair Credit Reporting Act and to comply 

with 12 CFR part 41, subpart C. 

Consumers will use the notices to 

decide if they want to receive 

solicitations for marketing purposes or 

opt out. Financial institutions will use 

the consumers’ opt out responses to 

determine the permissibility of using 

eligibility information obtained from an 

affiliate to make solicitations to the 

consumer. The responses will be used 

by financial institutions to comply with 

section 214 of the Fair and Accurate 

Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACT 

Act).1 We assume that the majority of 

banks will issue their affiliate marketing 

notices in a single notice with their 

annual privacy notice. 

Comments: A 60-Day Federal Register 

notice was issued on July 22, 2010 (75 

FR 42824). No comments were received. 

Comments continue to be invited on: 

(a) Whether the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

OCC, including whether the information 

has practical utility; 

(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s 

estimate of the information collection 

burden; 

(c) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; 

(d) Ways to minimize the burden of 

the collection on respondents, including 

through the use of automated collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology; and 

(e) Estimates of capital or start-up 

costs and costs of operation, 

maintenance, and purchase of services 

to provide information.
