Harm

Any adverse effects that would be experienced by an individual (i.e., that may be socially, physically, or financially damaging) or an organization if the confidentiality of PII were breached.

Linked Information

Information about or related to an individual that is logically associated with other information about the individual.

Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

Any information about an individual maintained by an agency, including (1) any information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual‘s identity, such as name, social security number, date and place of birth, mother‘s maiden name, or biometric records; and (2) any other information that is linked or linkable to an individual, such as medical, educational, financial, and employment information.

Linkable Information

Information about or related to an individual for which there is a possibility of logical association with other information about the individual.

Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)

An analysis of how information is handled that ensures handling conforms to applicable legal, regulatory, and policy requirements regarding privacy; determines the risks and effects of collecting, maintaining and disseminating information in identifiable form in an electronic information system; and examines and evaluates protections and alternative processes for handling information to mitigate potential privacy risks.

PII Confidentiality Impact Level:

The PII confidentiality impact level-low, moderate, or high- indicates the potential harm that could result to the subject individuals and/or the organization if PII were inappropriately accessed, used, or disclosed.

System of Records

A group of any records under the control of any agency from which information is retrieved by the name of the individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual.

Distinguishable Information

Information that can be used to identify an individual.

Context of Use

The purpose for which PII is collected, stored, used, processed, disclosed, or disseminated.

Aggregated Information

Information elements collated on a number of individuals, typically used for the purposes of making comparisons or identifying patterns.
