SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title of Collection: Privacy of Consumer Financial Information 
(Regulation P).
    OMB Control Number: 3170-0010.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement of an information collection.

    Abstract: Section 502 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) (Pub. L. 
106-102) generally prohibits a financial institution from sharing 
nonpublic personal information about a consumer with nonaffiliated 
third parties unless the institution satisfies various disclosure 
requirements (e.g., provision of initial privacy notices, annual 
notices, notices of revisions to the institution's privacy policy and 
opt-out notices) and the consumer has not elected to opt out of the 
information sharing. The Bureau promulgated Regulation P (12 CFR 1016) 
to implement the GLBA notice requirements and restrictions on a 
financial institution's ability to disclose nonpublic personal 
information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties.
    Request for Comments: The CFPB published a 60-day Federal Register

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the CFPB, 
including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The

collection of information on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be 
reviewed by OMB as part of its review of this request. All comments 
will become a matter of public record.
