Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act

FACTA

As of June 1, 2005, any person who maintains records is required to dispose of consumer information. According to the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACTA), "reasonable" measures such as burning, pulverizing, or shredding should be taken to destroy sensitive documents. At the federal level HIPAA (Healthcare) and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (Financial) require specific physical safeguards, such as shredding, to meet FACTA compliance.
