DC One Card Database Privacy Policy
 
Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) Privacy Policy for DC One Card Database
 
Background

The District of Columbia government has created the DC One Card program for two purposes: 
  • Providing convenience to residents through enabling them to access multiple District programs and services with a single card.
  • Producing cost savings for the government by eliminating duplication of credentials and associated maintenance across District agencies.
Scope

This policy applies only to the DC One Card data that is maintained by the Office Of The Chief Technology Officer (OCTO). DC One Card data that is maintained by other District agencies is subject to the privacy policies of those agencies.
 
Objectives

The objectives of this policy are to:
  1. Collect only such data from DC One Card users as is necessary to guarantee the uniqueness of each DC One Card, to permit District service agencies to determine whether a user holds a DC One Card, and to indicate what programs/agencies have registered each DC One Card;
  2. Protect DC One Card data from cyber-intrusion to the maximum extent technologically feasible;
  3. Limit access to DC One Card data to those individuals who need access for purposes of maintaining the DC One Card database.
Policy

Data Collected and Maintained

The data collected from DC One Card users and maintained in the DC One Card database shall be limited to the following information, which is necessary to identify the user, would be available from public sources, and cannot be used to obtain any other data about the user:
  1. Contact information: Name, address, telephone number;
  2. Gender;
  3. Date of birth;
  4. Last four digits of Social Security number (if provided);
  5. District agencies/programs that have registered the particular card;
  6. Card number;
  7. Photograph.
IT Security Protection

OCTO shall apply to the DC One Card database the full range of information technology (IT) security protections that OCTO applies to all other individually identifiable data in its custody.
 
Access Restrictions

Access to the DC One Card database shall be limited to those database technicians who have a need to access the database for purposes of maintaining it.
