Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) Repository

<p>This repository contains Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA) that have been vetted/approved. Section 208 of the Electronic Government Act of 2002 (E-Gov Act) requires federal agencies to conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) on information technology systems that either (1) collect, maintain, and/or disseminate Personally Identifiable Information (PII); or (2) make substantial changes to existing technology that manages PII.. A PIA is an analysis of how PII is collected, stored, protected, shared, and managed. Its purpose is to demonstrate that the information system owners and/or developers have incorporated privacy protections throughout the lifecycle of the system. Absent a legitimate security or sensitivity concern demonstrated by the agency, the E-Gov Act requires agencies to make PIAs publicly available.The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Privacy, FOIA, and Records Management strive to be the leader among Federal Information Technology (IT) organizations in protecting the privacy of Veterans' personal data. Our goal is to respond to mandates to meet the needs of Veterans, while improving the protection of their personal information.To view a PIA for a particular system, go to the heading labeled 'System Operating with a Current/Valid FY2013 PIA' and select the name of the program/project of interest.</p>
