• The Disposal Rule under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) is a federal regulation that requires any person or entity that maintains or possesses consumer information derived from consumer reports to dispose of such information in a secure and proper manner1.
• The Disposal Rule aims to protect consumers from identity theft and fraud by preventing unauthorized access to or use of their personal information1.
• The Disposal Rule is enforced by several federal agencies, depending on the type and sector of the entity that is subject to the rule1. These agencies include:
• The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is NOT one of the federal agencies that enforces the Disposal Rule under FACTA. HHS has authority over health information privacy and security under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH), but not under FACTA.

Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act) prohibits “unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce.”1 This prohibition applies to all persons engaged in commerce, including banks, but also exempts some entities, such as nonprofit organizations and common carriers, from FTC jurisdiction.2 Therefore, among the four options, only an online merchant’s free shipping offer would be subject to the requirements of Section 5, as it involves a commercial activity thatcould potentially mislead or harm consumers. For example, if the online merchant fails to disclose the terms and conditions of the offer, or charges hidden fees, or delivers the products late or damaged, it could violate Section 5 by engaging in a deceptive practice.3 References: 1: Section 5 | Federal Trade Commission 2: Federal Trade Commission Act Section 5: Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices, page 13: IAPP CIPP/US Certified Information Privacy Professional Study Guide, page 23.
