Application Name: http://mynasa.nasa.gov/ (the NASA Portal)

Is this application or information collection new or is an existing one being modified? No

Does this application collect, maintain, and/or disseminate information in identifiable

form (IIF)? Yes

Mission Program/Project Supported: All, through the NASA Office of Public Affairs

Other Identifying Number(s): N/A

Description

1. Provide an overview of the application or collection and indicate the legislationauthorizing this activity.

http://mynasa.nasa.gov/ is NASAs public application portal. It hosts thedynamic application content for the NASA Portal, a secure system provided toallow web publication of NASAs public content to a broad public audience.http://mynasa.nasa.gov/ interacts with other NASA Portal applicationsincluding www.nasa.gov and mediaservices.nasa.gov, each of which isdesigned to securely accomplish the requests of web users who voluntarilyprovide information. It also allows voluntary user registration that whencompleted allows users to personalize what they want to view on NASAsportal. This IIF is not disseminated to any other location or system.

2. Describe the information the agency will collect, maintain, or disseminate and howthe agency will use the information. In this description, indicate whether theinformation contains IIF and whether submission is voluntaryor mandatory.

http://mynasa.nasa.gov/ stores web user IIF directly through user registrationswhich are submitted voluntarily. In addition, through a contact us pageprovided for each NASA Center, Mission Support Office, and MissionDirectorate that is hosted within http://www.nasa.gov/, and through a specialevent registration system for Goddard Space Flight Center called SpaceChat,first name, last name, email address, and in the case of SpaceChat, certaindemographic information is collected and stored. The information is

submitted voluntarily by the web user. This information is maintained insecure systems and used for personalization of the user experience and torespond to user queries and requests.

The information collected and stored by http://mynasa.nasa.gov/ will be usedonly for its intended purpose as described above. Information collected is theminimum required accomplish the users voluntary request.

4. Explain why the IIF is being collected, maintained, or disseminated.

Information isvoluntarily provided by the user who chooses to register onmynasa.nasa.gov for the sole purpose of customizing their view of NASAcontent. These preferences are stored so that the user is always presentedwith their customized view when the return to the site. MyNASA, also servesas the repository for requests submitted to contacta NASA Center, MissionSupport Office, and Mission Directorate that is hosted withinhttp://www.nasa.gov/, and through SpaceChat, an special event registrationsystem for Goddard Space Flight Center. The information is collected torespond to a users request or register them for a NASA special event.

5. Identify with whom the agency will share the IIF.

The agency does not share this information with anyone other then NASA, itsagents, or as otherwise required by law.

Registered users can access theirregistration information through a user id and password that is only known tothem.

6. Describe how the IIF will be obtained, from whom it will be collected, what thesuppliers of information and the subjects will be told about the information collection,and how this message will be conveyed to them (e.g., written notice, electronicnotice if a Web-based collection, etc.). Describe any opportunities for consent

9. Describe plans for retention and destruction of IIF.

Logon Ids and passwords are retained for a period of time that the user wishesto use http://mynasa.nasa.gov. These are deleted if the user requests deletion.

Where information is collected for a request or question through email, NASAstores the users email address for a sufficient time to allow research to becompleted and to properly respond to the user. In any case, the emailaddress is retained for no longer than ninety days. Other information isretained for a period of time to carry out the request of the user and in no caselonger than the time allowed by the General Records Schedule.
