The Commission is also extending the time period for the submission of public comments or original research to allow parties to comment on the discussions that occur at the third roundtable. The Commission will accept public comments through April 14, 2010. Comments should refer to “Privacy Roundtables – Comment, Project No. P095416.” To file electronically, follow the instructions and fill out the form at https://public.commentworks.com/ftc/privacyroundtable1. Paper comments should include the above reference both in the text and on the envelope, and should be mailed or delivered to: Federal Trade Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Office of the Secretary, Room H-135 (Annex P), N.W., Washington, DC 20580. Comments containing confidential material, however, must be filed in paper form, must be clearly labeled “Confidential,” and must comply with Commission Rule 4.9(c). The FTC requests that any paper comments be sent by courier or overnight service, if possible, because postal mail in the Washington area and at the Commission is subject to delay due to heightened security precautions.

Date: March 17, 2010 at 8 a.m. ET
Location: FTC Conference Center; 601 New Jersey Avenue, NW; Washington, DC 20001 and via webcast.
