Effective May 2009, Notice 70, Privacy Act Notice — Human Resources Forms, has been revised to include the addition of two new notices.
A Privacy Act notice is required whenever an agency collects personally identifiable information (PII) about individuals and that information is retrieved by name or other personal identifier. When the Postal Service™ collects and maintains PII from other government agency forms and the information is covered under a Postal Service system of records, the Postal Service is required to provide its own Privacy Act Notice. This requirement is met by providing Notice 70 with the other agency form.
Notice 70 has been revised and is now three separate notices: one notice for each primary functional area that uses other agency forms as follows:
n Notice 70, Privacy Act Notice — Human Resources Benefits Forms.
n Notice 70-A, Privacy Act Notice — Investigative and Verification Forms.
n Notice 70-B, Privacy Act Notice — Office of Workers’ Compensation Program Forms.
You can order Notices 70, 70-A, and 70-B, from the Material Distribution Center (MDC) and use touch-tone order entry (TTOE): Call 800-273-1509.
Note: You must be registered to use TTOE. To register, call 800-332-0317, option 1, extension 2925, and follow the prompts to leave a message. (Wait 48 hours after registering before placing your first order.)
