In establishing such data sys- tem, the Secretary shall place a priority on pro- viding for the monitoring of enrollment, student status, information about current loan holders and servicers, and internship and residency in- formation. Such data system shall also permit borrowers to use the system to identify the cur- rent loan holders and servicers of such bor- rower’s loan not later than one year after Octo- ber 7, 1998. The information in the data system shall include (but is not limited to)— (1) the amount and type of each such loan made; (2) the names and social security numbers of the borrowers; (3) the guaranty agency responsible for the guarantee of the loan; (4) the institution of higher education or or- ganization responsible for loans made under parts D and E; (5) the exact amount of loans partially or to- tally canceled or in deferment for service under the Peace Corps Act (22 U.S.C. 2501 et seq.), for service under the Domestic Volun- teer Service Act of 1973 [42 U.S.C. 4950 et seq.], and for comparable full-time service as a vol- unteer for a tax-exempt organization of dem- onstrated effectiveness; (6) the eligible institution in which the stu- dent was enrolled or accepted for enrollment at the time the loan was made, and any addi- tional institutions attended by the borrower; (7) the total amount of loans made to any borrower and the remaining balance of the loans; (8) the lender, holder, and servicer of such loans; (9) information concerning the date of any default on the loan and the collection of the loan, including any information concerning the repayment status of any defaulted loan on which the Secretary has made a payment pur- suant to section 1080(a) of this title or the guaranty agency has made a payment to the previous holder of the loan; (10) information regarding any deferments or forbearance granted on such loans; and (11) the date of cancellation of the note upon completion of repayment by the borrower of the loan or payment by the Secretary pursu- ant to section 1087 of this title. (b) Additional information For the purposes of research and policy anal- ysis, the proposal shall also contain provisions for obtaining additional data concerning the characteristics of borrowers and the extent of student loan indebtedness on a statistically valid sample of borrowers under part B. Such data shall include— (1) information concerning the income level of the borrower and his family and the extent of the borrower’s need for student financial as- sistance, including loans; (2) information concerning the type of insti- tution attended by the borrower and the year of the program of education for which the loan was obtained; (3) information concerning other student fi- nancial assistance received by the borrower; and Page 692 TITLE 20—EDUCATION § 1092b (4) information concerning Federal costs as- sociated with the student loan program under part B, including the costs of interest sub- sidies, special allowance payments, and other subsidies.

(d) Principles for administering the data system In managing the National Student Loan Data System, the Secretary shall take actions nec- essary to maintain confidence in the data sys- tem, including, at a minimum— (1) ensuring that the primary purpose of ac- cess to the data system by guaranty agencies, eligible lenders, and eligible institutions of higher education is for legitimate program op- erations, such as the need to verify the eligi- bility of a student, potential student, or par- ent for loans under part B, D, or E; (2) prohibiting nongovernmental researchers and policy analysts from accessing personally identifiable information; (3) creating a disclosure form for students and potential students that is distributed when such students complete the common fi- nancial reporting form under section 1090 of this title, and as a part of the exit counseling process under section 1092(b) of this title, that— (A) informs the students that any sub- chapter IV grant or loan the students re- ceive will be included in the National Stu- dent Loan Data System, and instructs the students on how to access that information; (B) describes the categories of individuals or entities that may access the data relating to such grant or loan through the data sys- tem, and for what purposes access is allowed; (C) defines and explains the categories of information included in the data system; (D) provides a summary of the provisions of section 1232g of this title (commonly known as the ‘‘Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974’’) and other applica- ble Federal privacy statutes, and a state- ment of the students’ rights and responsibil- ities with respect to such statutes; (E) explains the measures taken by the De- partment to safeguard the students’ data; and (F) includes other information as deter- mined appropriate by the Secretary; (4) requiring guaranty agencies, eligible lenders, and eligible institutions of higher education that enter into an agreement with a potential student, student, or parent of such student regarding a loan under part B, D, or E, to inform the student or parent that such loan shall be— (A) submitted to the data system; and (B) accessible to guaranty agencies, eligi- ble lenders, and eligible institutions of high- er education determined by the Secretary to be authorized users of the data system; (5) regularly reviewing the data system to— (A) delete inactive users from the data sys- tem; (B) ensure that the data in the data sys- tem are not being used for marketing pur- poses; and (C) monitor the use of the data system by guaranty agencies and eligible lenders to de- termine whether an agency or lender is ac- cessing the records of students in which the agency or lender has no existing financial interest; (6) developing standardized protocols for limiting access to the data system that in- clude— (A) collecting data on the usage of the data system to monitor whether access has been or is being used contrary to the pur- poses of the data system; (B) defining the steps necessary for deter- mining whether, and how, to deny or restrict access to the data system; and (C) determining the steps necessary to re- open access to the data system following a denial or restriction of access; and (7) preventing access to the data system and any other system used to administer a pro- gram under this subchapter by any person or entity for the purpose of assisting a student in managing loan repayment or applying for any repayment plan, consolidation loan, or other benefit authorized by this subchapter, unless such access meets the requirements described in subsection (e).
