Personally Identifiable Information is defined as below.

Per Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-130, Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is “information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual's identity, either alone or when combined with other information that is linked or linkable to a specific individual.” Examples of PII include, but are Security and Privacy Requirements for Information Technology Procurements not limited to the following: social security number, date and place of birth, mother’s maiden name, biometric records, etc.

Per TYAD, sensitive PII is PII that if released improperly could result in harm, embarrassment, inconvenience, or unfairness to the individual whose name or identity is linked to the information.

Context must be accounted for in order to determine whether PII is sensitive. Some PII is always sensitive, and some is only sensitive when it is used in a particular context. For example, a list of people subscribing to a government newsletter is generally not sensitive PII; a list of people receiving treatment for substance abuse would always be considered sensitive PII.

The list below is not exhaustive. Context must be accounted for in order to determine whether PII is sensitive. The following types of information are always considered sensitive:

• Social Security Numbers (including using just the last 4 digits of the SSN)

• Date of birth

• Mother’s maiden name

• Biometric identifiers (e.g., fingerprint, iris scan, voice print)

• Personal financial information, credit card and purchase card account numbers

• Citizenship and immigration status

• Criminal history • Computer access passwords and security questions

• Medical records
