Attachment 2c - AFRL Privacy Act fo.pdf

This is a Privacy Act Statement from the Air Force Research Laboratory that serves as a disclosure form for federal research and development award applicants.

The statement establishes the legal authority for information collection under multiple statutes and executive orders, including the Government Paperwork Elimination Act, the National Defense Authorization Act, and DoD security and intelligence regulations. The purpose of information collection is to process, investigate, and maintain records relevant to Federal Grants, Cooperative Agreements, Contracts, and Other Transaction Agreements awarded by the Department of the Air Force. The collected information will be shared with contractors, grantees, experts, consultants, students, and others performing work on Air Force-sponsored agreements, as well as appropriate Federal, State, local, territorial, tribal, foreign, or international law enforcement authorities when violations of law are indicated. Providing information to the Air Force is voluntary; however, 42 U.S. Code § 6605 imposes mandatory disclosure requirements for Federal research and development awards, with non-compliance subject to rejection of applications and potential civil or criminal remedies. The form includes signature lines for acknowledgment of consent from covered individuals and their institution's authorized representatives, with spaces to document the proposal title and institution name.
