Protects veterans' personal information by banning its sale by VA contractors.
This bill would stop Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) contractors from selling sensitive personal information belonging to veterans. It would also require all VA contracts to include clear rules against misusing this data. This aims to better protect veterans' privacy and ensure their information is not sold for profit.
Today, there isn't an explicit ban on Department of Veterans Affairs contractors selling sensitive personal information, nor are specific contract clauses and guidance mandated to prevent misuse. If this bill becomes law, the Department of Veterans Affairs would be immediately prohibited from entering contracts that allow such sales, and within one year, all relevant contracts would include clauses banning monetization or misuse of veterans' data, supported by new guidance for employees and contractors.
