The Privacy Act of 1973 permits agencies to collect and maintain information on U.S. citizens and legally admitted aliens. Within the Navy, we are permitted to collect and maintain information on individuals affiliated with the Navy (i.e., Navy civilian employees, military members, family members, contract workers, ect). The information we collect and maintain fall under one of the 179 Privacy Act systems. A list of the approved systems are contained in OPNAVNOTE 5211, navy Privacy Act (PA) System of Record Notices.

* If you are collecting personal information directly from an individual about him/herself, you must provide a Privacy Act Statement (PAS) that lists the authority and purpose for collecting the information; who will use and have access to the information; and, whether or not providing the information is voluntary or mandatory. In most instances, providing the information is voluntary.
