In its normal course of operation, the Postal Service collects, maintains, and uses information that relates to, or could be used to identify, individuals (“personal information”). Both federal law and postal policies regulate how this information is collected and maintained. The Privacy Act of 1974 establishes principles, standards, and safeguards for the collection, maintenance, and dissemination of personal information by federal executive agencies and the Postal Service. Additionally, the Postal Service has promulgated a series of programs, processes, and policies that protect the privacy of individuals, including customers and employees.
