Legal Status This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.
For complete information about, and access to, our official publications
and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Privacy of Consumer Financial Information (OMB Control No. 3038-0055). This is a request for an extension of a currently approved information collection.
Abstract: Section 124 of the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000 [2 ] amended the Commodity Exchange Act (the “Act”) and added a new Section 5g [3 ] to the Act to (i) provide that futures commission merchants, commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators, and introducing brokers that are subject to CFTC jurisdiction with respect to any financial activity shall be treated as a financial institution for purposes of Title V, Subtitle A of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLB Act”), (ii) treat the Commission as a Federal functional regulator for purposes of applying the provisions of the GLB Act, and (iii) direct the Commission to prescribe regulations under Title V of the GLB Act.
The Commission adopted regulations for these entities under Part 160 and later extended them to retail foreign exchange dealers, swap dealers, and major swap participants. [4 ] Part 160 requires those subject to the regulations, among other things, to provide privacy and opt out notices to customers and consumers, and to adopt appropriate policies and procedures to safeguard customer records and information. In April 2019, the Commission adopted amendments to its regulations to provide an exception to its annual privacy notice requirement under certain conditions. [5 ]
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. On December 15, 2025, the Commission published in the Federal Register notice of the proposed extension of this information collection and provided 60 days for public comment on the proposed extension, 90 FR 57962 (“60-Day Notice”). The ( printed page 9605) Commission received no relevant comments on the 60-Day Notice.
Burden Statement: The respondent burden for this collection is estimated to be as follows:
Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,399.
Estimated Number of Annual Responses per Respondent: 95.
Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses per Respondent: 322,905.
Estimated Time per Response: 2 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 10,764.
Frequency of Collection: Annual.
There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
Dated: February 24, 2026.
Robert Sidman,
Deputy Secretary of the Commission.
