SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background:

On February 23, 2012, the White House released Consumer Data Privacy in a Networked World: A Framework for Protecting Privacy and Promoting Innovation in the Global Digital Economy (the ‘‘Privacy Blueprint’’).1  The Privacy Blueprint directs NTIA to convene multistakeholder processes to develop legally enforceable codes of conduct that specify how the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights applies in specific business contexts.2  On July 12, 2012, NTIA

convened the first multistakeholder process, in which stakeholders developed a code of conduct

to provide transparency in how companies providing applications and interactive services for mobile devices handle personal data.

3  On December 3, 2013, NTIA announced that the goal of the second multistakeholder process is to develop a code of conduct to protect consumers’ privacy and promote trust regarding facial recognition technology in the commercial context.4

NTIA encourages stakeholders to address in the code all seven fair information practice principles enumerated in the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights.

Matters to Be Considered:

The February 6, 2014 meeting will be the first in a series of NTIA- convened multistakeholder discussions concerning facial recognition technology. Subsequent meetings will follow on February 25, 2014; March 25, 2014; April 8, 2014; April 29, 2014; May 20, 2014; June 3, 2014; and June 24, 2014.  Stakeholders will engage in an open, transparent, consensus-driven process to develop a code of conduct regarding facial recognition technology.
