The IRS conducts a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) on information systems collecting personally identifiable information from the public. We do PIAs to ensure that:
-
the public is aware of the information we collect about them,
-
any impact these systems have on personal privacy is adequately addressed,
-
we collect only enough personal information to administer our programs, and no more.
In addition, PIAs confirm that we use the information for the purpose intended; that the information remains timely and accurate; and, that it is protected while we have it and that we hold it only for as long as we need it.
PIAs may be available in html, plain text, Adobe Acrobat pdf , and MicroSoft Word formats. If no link is provided, then the PIA is not yet available or not yet available in that particular format. (See text below the listing for additional information.)
