`
`Petitioner/applicant is cautioned to avoid submitting personal information in documentsfiled in a patent application that may
`contribute to identity theft. Personal information such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers
`(other than a check or credit card authorization form PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes) is never required by the USPTO
`to support a petition or an application.
`If this type of personal information is included in documents submitted to the USPTO,
`petitioners/applicants should consider redacting such personal information from the documents before submitting them to the
`USPTO. Petitioner/applicant is advised that the record of a patent application is available to the public after publication of the
`application (unless a non-publication request in compliance with 37 CFR 1.213(a) is made in the application) or issuance of a
`patent. Furthermore, the record from an abandonedapplication may also be available to the public if the application is
`referenced in a published application or an issued patent (see 37 CFR 1.14). Checks and credit card authorization forms
`PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes are not retained in the application file and therefore are not publicly available.
`Petitioner/applicant is advised that documents which form the record of a patent application (such as the PTO/SB/01) are placed
`into the Privacy Act system of records DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, COMMERCE-PAT-7, System name: Patent Application
`Files . Documents not retained in an application file (such as the PTO-2038) are placed into the Privacy Act system of
`COMMERCE/PAT-TM-10, System name: Deposit Accounts and Electronic Funds Transfer Profiles.
