SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) As the Nation's communications networks continue to
grow and become ever more sophisticated, more individuals and
industries will be using such networks to communicate and
conduct commercial transactions.
(2) The ease of gathering and compiling personal
information during such communications, both overtly and
surreptitiously, is becoming increasingly efficient and almost
effortless due to advances in digital telecommunications
technology and the widespread use of the Internet.
(3) Consumers have an ownership interest in their personal
information.
(4) Information gathered about consumers over the Internet
can provide detail about some of the most intimate aspects of
an individual's life, including their Internet interests,
communications with other citizens, purchases, information
inquiries, and political or religious interests, affiliations,
or speech.
(5) Certain information about Internet searches or website
visits conducted from a particular computer can be obtained and
stored by websites or search engines, and can be traced back to
individual computer users.
(6) Fair information practices include providing consumers
with knowledge of any data collection, conspicuous consumer
notice of an entity's data practices, consumer choice to
provide consent or deny authorization for such practices,
access to data collected, safeguards to ensure data integrity,
and contact information.
(7) In order to safeguard consumer privacy interests,
companies that gather personal information that can identify
individual consumers should cease to store such information
after it is no longer necessary to render service to such
consumers or to conduct any legitimate business practice.
(8) Cable operators, who can gather personal information
about a subscriber's use of the cable system and obtain
information about a consumer's video programming choices and
use of their cable modem are currently required under section
631 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 551) to
destroy any personal information gathered from a subscriber
after it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it
was gathered and if there are no other pending legal requests
for such information.
(9) A similar obligation should govern information gathered
about consumers by Internet websites, which often possess
information about computer users which is more detailed, and
arguably more personalized, than information cable operators
typically gather.

SEC. 3. DESTRUCTION OF DATA WITH PERSONAL INFORMATION BY INTERNET
WEBSITES.

An owner of an Internet website shall destroy, within a reasonable
period of time, any data containing personal information if the
information is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was
collected or any other legitimate business purpose, or there are no
pending requests or orders for access to such information pursuant to a
court order.

SEC. 4. ENFORCEMENT BY THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION.

A violation of section 3 shall be treated as a violation of a rule
defining an unfair or deceptive act or practice prescribed under
section 18(a)(1)(B) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C.
57a(a)(1)(B)). The Federal Trade Commission shall enforce this Act in
the same manner, by the same means, and with the same jurisdiction as
though all applicable terms and provisions of the Federal Trade
Commission Act were incorporated into and made a part of this Act.
