AGENCY: Postal ServiceTM.

[[Page 40922]]


ACTION: Notice of modification to existing system of records.

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

SUMMARY: The United States Postal Service[supreg] is proposing to

reflect the addition of language preferences selected by the customer

DATES: The revision will become effective without further notice on 
August 10, 2012 unless comments received on or before that date result 
in a contrary determination.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed or delivered to the Records Office, 
United States Postal Service, 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW., Room 9431, 
Washington, DC 20260-2201. Copies of all written comments will be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is in accordance with the 
Privacy Act requirement that agencies publish their amended systems of 
records in the Federal Register when there is a revision, change, or 
addition. The Postal ServiceTM has reviewed this system of 
records and has determined that this Customer Privacy Act System of 
Records should be revised to modify Categories of Records in the System 
and the System Manager(s) and Address.

I. Background

    In July 2011, the Postal Service introduced a re-designed usps.com 
Web site with the first launch of multilingual functionality in October 
2011 and added translated content in January 2012.
    Additionally, in June 2012 the Postal Service made additional 
management and organizational changes.

II. Rationale for Changes to USPS Privacy Act Systems of Records

    The Customer Experience Improvement Project enables a broader 
audience to successfully interact with the Postal Service in the 
customer's preferred language. As a result, these updates will allow 
customers to permanently select which language they want to use when 
receiving emails from the Postal Service and when visiting usps.com.
    Also, in regards to the system manager title update, there is a 
continuing need to reflect changes in the identity or title of 
responsible officials.

III. Description of Changes to Systems of Records

    The Postal Service is modifying one system of records listed below. 
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(11), interested persons are invited to 
submit written data, views, or arguments on this proposal. A report of 
the proposed modifications has been sent to Congress and to the Office 
of Management and Budget for their evaluation. The Postal Service does 
not expect this amended notice to have any adverse effect on individual 
privacy rights. The affected system is as follows:
    USPS 810.100.
    System Name: www.usps.com Registration.
    Accordingly, for the reasons stated, the Postal Service proposes 
changes in the existing system of records as follows:
USPS 810.100

SYSTEM NAME:
    www.usps.com Registration
