    The Department of the Treasury intends to submit requests for information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The requests involve a new form used by the IRS, titled IRS Governmental Liaison (GL) Data Exchange Request. This form, numbered Form 15426, aims to facilitate collaboration between IRS units and external agencies regarding tax information exchanges. The public is encouraged to provide feedback on these requests by February 20, 2025.

    The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), through its Office of Mission Support, is creating a new system of records called the Online Library System (OLS). This system will help manage data from libraries within the EPA National Library Network. OLS will collect personally identifiable information (PII) under the Privacy Act of 1974, and it includes modules for managing library subscriptions, material dispersals, and tracking which library materials are borrowed by registered individuals. Public comments on the system can be submitted until March 25, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is starting a new computer system to keep track of its library books and who borrows them, but they must be careful with people's personal information, and they're asking people to share their thoughts about it before March 25, 2021.

    The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is seeking public comments on a proposed consent agreement with GoDaddy Inc. due to alleged violations of federal law regarding deceptive practices. The FTC claims that GoDaddy falsely advertised their data security measures as robust while failing to implement adequate security practices, leading to unauthorized access to customers' websites and data breaches. The proposed agreement requires GoDaddy to enhance its data security measures, undergo regular third-party assessments for 20 years, and report additional data incidents to the FTC. These measures aim to prevent future violations and protect consumers' personal information.

    Simple Explanation

    The FTC is checking if GoDaddy told people their data was super safe but didn't really protect it well, causing data problems. They want GoDaddy to make safety better and have someone check it for 20 years to keep people safe.
