H.R. 4604
CFPB Data Collection Security Act
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services on June 11, 2014
SUMMARY
H.R. 4604 would direct the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) to establish
an opt out list, which would include the names of consumers that forbid the bureau from
collecting information that can be used to distinguish their identity (that is, personally
identifiable information). The CFPB would be required to develop a method that allows
consumers to add or remove their names from the opt-out list; the bureau would be
prohibited from collecting such information about individuals who have made that
notification, except for efforts to investigate consumer complaints. H.R. 4604 also would
limit the time that the bureau may keep personally identifiable information after collection,
and require all employees that have access to such information to hold a confidential
security clearance.
CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 4604 would cost the CFPB $83 million over the
2015-2024 period, thus increasing direct spending by that amount; therefore,
pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting H.R. 4604 would not affect revenues or
spending subject to appropriation.
H.R. 4604 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would not affect the budgets of state, local,
or tribal governments.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 4604 is shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget function 370 (commerce and housing credit).
