Privacy Act Statement
Authority. The FBI's acquisition, preservation, and exchange of fingerprints and associated
information is generally authorized under 28 U.S.C. 534. Depending on the nature of your application,
supplemental authorities include Federal statutes, State statutes pursuant to Pub. L. 92-544,
Presidential Executive Orders, and federal regulations. Providing your fingerprints and associated
information is voluntary; however, failure to do so may affect completion or approval of your
application.
Principal Purpose. Certain determinations, such as employment, licensing, and security clearances,
may be predicated on fingerprint-based background checks. Your fingerprints and associated
information/biometrics may be provided to the employing, investigating, or otherwise responsible
agency, and/or the FBI for the purpose of comparing your fingerprints to other fingerprints in the FBI's
Next Generation Identification (NGI) system or its successor systems (including civil, criminal, and
latent fingerprint repositories) or other available records of the employing, investigating, or otherwise
responsible agency. The FBI may retain your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics in NGI
after the completion of this application and, while retained, your fingerprints may continue to be
compared against other fingerprints submitted to or retained by NGI.
Routine Uses. During the processing of this application and for as long thereafter as your fingerprints
and associated information/biometrics are retained in NGI, your information may be disclosed
pursuant to your consent, and may be disclosed without your consent as permitted by the Privacy Act
of 1974 and all applicable Routine Uses as may be published at any time in the Federal Register,
including the Routine Uses for the NGI system and the FBI's Blanket Routine Uses. Routine uses
include, but are not limited to, disclosures to: employing, governmental, or authorized non-
governmental agencies responsible for employment, contracting, licensing, security clearances, and
other suitability determinations; local, state, tribal, or federal law enforcement agencies; criminal justice
agencies; and agencies responsible for national security or public safety.

Noncriminal Justice Applicant's Privacy Rights
As an applicant who is the subject of a national fingerprint-based criminal history record check for
a noncriminal justice purpose (such as an application for employment or a license, an immigration
or naturalization matter, security clearance, or adoption), you have certain rights which are
discussed below.
You must be provided written notification1 that your fingerprints will be used to check the
c
riminal history records of the FBI
.
You must be provided, and acknowledge receipt of, an adequate Privacy Act Statement
w
hen you submit your fingerprints and associated personal information. This Privacy
Act
S
tatement should explain the authority for collecting your information and how y
our
i
nformation will be used, retained, and shared.
2
If you have a criminal history record, the officials making a determination of your
s
uitability for the employment, license, or other benefit must provide you the opportunit
y
to complete or challenge the accuracy of the information in the record.
The officials must advise you that the procedures for obtaining a change, correction,or
updat
e of your criminal history record are set forth at Title 28, Code of Feder
al
Regulations (CFR), Section 16.34.
If you have a criminal history record, you should be afforded a reasonable amount of time
t
o correct or complete the record (or decline to do so) before the officials deny you t
he
e
mployment, license, or other benefit based on information in the criminal history record
. 3
You have the right to expect that officials receiving the results of the criminal history record check
will use it only for authorized purposes and will not retain or disseminate it in violation of federal
statute, regulation or executive order, or rule, procedure or standard established by the National
Crime Prevention and Privacy Compact Council.
4
If agency policy permits, the officials may provide you with a copy of your FBI criminal history
record for review and possible challenge. If agency policy does not permit it to provide you a copy
of the record, you may obtain a copy of the record by submitting fingerprints and a fee to the FBI.
Information regarding this process may be obtained at https://www.fbi.gov/services/cjis/identity-
history-summary-checks.
If you decide to challenge the accuracy or completeness of your FBI criminal history record, you
should send your challenge to the agency that contributed the questioned information to the FBI.
Alternatively, you may send your challenge directly to the FBI. The FBI will then forward your
challenge to the agency that contributed the questioned information and request the agency to
verify or correct the challenged entry. Upon receipt of an official communication from that agency,
the FBI will make any necessary changes/corrections to your record in accordance with the
information supplied by that agency. (See 28 CFR 16.30 through 16.34.)
You can find additional
information on the FBI website at https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/background-checks.
