Privacy Act Statement for Patent Assignment Recordation Form Cover Sheet
The Privacy Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-579) requires that you be given certain information in
connection with the above request for information. This collection of information is authoriz
ed
by 35 U.S.C. 1, 2, 261 and E.O. 9424. This information will primarily be used by the USPTO
for the recordation of assignments related to patents and patent applications. Submission of this
information is voluntary but is required in order for the USP
T
O to record the requested
assignment. If you do not provide the information required on the cover sheet, the assignment
will not be recorded, and all documents will be returned to you.
After the information is recorded, the records and associated documents can be inspected by the
public and are not confidential, except for documents that are sealed under secrecy orders or
related to unpublished patent applications. Assignment records relating to unpublished patent
applications are maintained in confidence in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 122. Records open to
the public are searched by users for the purpose of determining ownership for other property
rights with respect to patents and trademarks.
Routine uses of the information you provide may also include disclosure to appropriate Federal,
state, local, or foreign agencies in support of their enforcement duties and statutory or regulatory
missions, including investigating potential violations of law or contract and awarding contracts
or other benefits; to a
court, magistrate, or administrative tribunal in the course of presenting
evidence; to members of Congress responding to requests for assistance from their constituents;
to the Office of Management and Budget in connection with the review of private relief
legislation; to the Department of Justice in connection with a Freedom of Information Act
request; to a contractor in the performance of their duties; to the Office of Personnel
Management for personnel studies; and to the General Services Administration (GSA) as part of
their records management responsibilities under the authority of 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906. Such
disclosure to GSA shall not be used to make determinations about individuals.
