FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

[File No. 051 0094]


Negotiated Data Solutions LLC; Analysis of Proposed Consent Order 
to Aid Public Comment

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Extension of deadline for submission of public comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade Commission is extending the deadline for 
filing public comments in connection with the consent agreement in this 
matter, which settles alleged violations of federal law prohibiting 
unfair or deceptive acts or practices and unfair methods of 
competition.

DATES: Public comments must be received on or before April 24, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are invited to submit written comments. 
Comments should refer to ``Negotiated Data Solutions, File No. 051 
0094,'' to facilitate the organization of comments. A comment filed in 
paper form should include this reference both in the text and on the 
envelope, and should be mailed or delivered to the following address: 
Federal Trade Commission/Office of the Secretary, Room 135-H (Annex D), 
600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20580. Comments 
containing confidential material must be filed in paper form, must be 
clearly labeled ``Confidential,'' and must comply with Commission Rule 
4.9(c). 16 CFR 4.9(c) (2005).\1\ The FTC is requesting that any comment 
filed in paper form be sent by courier or overnight service, if 
possible, because U.S. postal mail in the Washington area and at the 
Commission is subject to delay due to heightened security. Comments 
that do not contain any nonpublic information may instead be filed in 
electronic form by following the instructions on the web-based form at

[[Page 10033]]

http://secure.commentworks.com/ftc-NegotiatedDataSolutions. To ensure 
that the Commission considers an electronic comment, you must file it 
on that web-based form. The FTC Act and other laws the Commission 
administers permit the collection of public comments to consider and 
use in this proceeding as appropriate. All timely and responsive public 
comments, whether filed in paper or electronic form, will be considered 
by the Commission, and will be available to the public on the FTC 
website, to the extent practicable, at www.ftc.gov. As a matter of 
discretion, the FTC makes every effort to remove home contact 
information for individuals from the public comments it receives before 
placing those comments on the FTC website. More information, including 
routine uses permitted by the Privacy Act, may be found in the FTC's 
privacy policy, at http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/privacy.htm.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The comment must be accompanied by an explicit request for 
confidential treatment, including the factual and legal basis for 
the request, and must identify the specific portions of the comment 
to be withheld from the public record. The request will be granted 
or denied by the Commission's General Counsel, consistent with 
applicable law and the public interest. See Commission Rule 4.9(c), 
16 CFR 4.9(c).

Competition, Room NJ-6213, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 23, 2008, pursuant to section 
6(f) of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 38 Stat. 721, 15 U.S.C. 
46(f), and Sec.  2.34 of the Commission Rules of Practice, 16 CFR 2.34, 
the Commission gave notice that the above-captioned consent agreement 
containing a consent order to cease and desist, having been filed with 
and accepted, subject to final approval, by the Commission, had been 
placed on the public record for a period of thirty (30) days, and 
published a Notice to that effect in the Federal Register. See 73 Fed. 
Reg. 5,846 (Jan. 31, 2008). The Notice also designated February 22, 
2008, as the deadline for filing public comments. A number of 
prospective commenters have now requested an extension of the public 
comment period, in order to ensure that they will be able to provide 
the Commission with the best information available. In light of the 
number and importance of the issues on which it has requested comment, 
the Commission has determined to extend the filing deadline until April 
24, 2008.
    By direction of the Commission.

Donald S. Clark
Secretary.
