Privacy Act of 1974; U.S. Customs and Border Protection, DHS/CBP-006-Automated Targeting System, System of Records

요약

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security proposes to update and expand an existing Department of Homeland Security system of records notice titled, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, DHS/CBP-006--Automated Targeting System (ATS) 72 FR 43650, August 6, 2007. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have designed ATS to efficiently perform risk assessments on information pertaining to international travelers and import and export shipments attempting to enter or leave the United States. ATS uses a rule-managed technology that facilitates the targeting of high-risk travelers and cargo. DHS/CBP is publishing this System of Records Notice (SORN) to update ATS and to update and expand the categories of individuals, categories of records, routine uses, access provisions, and sources of data stored in ATS. Elsewhere in the Federal Register, the Department of Homeland Security is concurrently issuing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking exempting this system of records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act. This updated and expanded system will be included in the Department of Homeland Security's inventory
