Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Section 205 of the Social Security Act, as amended; the Government Paperwork Elimination Act (P.L. 105-277); and the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 allow us to collect this information to grant you access to our online services. Furnishing us this information is voluntary. However, failing to provide all or part of the information may prevent you from obtaining access to Business Online Services (BSO).
We will use the information you provide to verify your identity, and register you, or your company, with the BSO. We may also share the information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
To other Federal agencies and our contractors, including external data sources, to assist us in administering our programs; and
To appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies, entities, and persons when:
(a) We suspect or confirm a compromise of security or confidentiality
information;
(b) We determine that as a result of the suspected or confirmed compromise there
is a risk of harm to economic or property interests, risk of identity theft or
fraud, or harm to the security or integrity of this system or other systems or
programs that rely upon the compromised information; and
(c) We determine that disclosing the information to such agencies, entities, and
persons will assist us in our efforts to respond to the suspected or confirmed
compromise and prevent, minimize, or remedy such harm.
In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal laws. For example, where authorized, we may use and disclose this information in computer matching programs, in which our records are compared with other records to establish or verify a person’s eligibility for Federal benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect or delinquent debts under these programs.
A list of additional routine uses is available in our Privacy Act System of Records Notice (SORN) 60-0373, entitled Repository of Electronic Authentication Data Master File, as published in the Federal Register on December 19, 2010, at 75 FR 79065. Additional information, and a full listing of all of our SORNs, is available on our website at www.ssa.gov/privacy.
