Address Protection: Data Security for At-Risk Individuals
This new law ensures that federal agencies and courts must accept substitute addresses for individuals in address confidentiality programs. This means at-risk individuals, such as victims of violence, can safely hide their true address, protecting their privacy and safety. The act also shields this information from public disclosure requests.
