Short Statement:
There are no program changes. Staff has adjusted its previously stated estimate of burden hours and the number of non-GLBA entities that may send the affiliate marketing notice based on updated inputs within the SIC codes from businesses that market goods or services to consumers in certain industries. It has also corrected its prior calculations based on the continuing assumed rate of affiliation (16.75%). Additionally, although the estimated number of GLBA business entities and families remain the same as the prior estimate, staff slightly refined the calculation to arrive at the net number of GLB business entities subject to the FTC's jurisdiction.
