Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)

DHS/ALL/PIA-002 DHS Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (TRIP)

The Department of Homeland Security Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (TRIP) is a customer service web-based initiative developed as a voluntary program to provide a one-stop mechanism for individuals to request redress, who make inquiries, or seek resolution regarding difficulties they experienced during their travel screening at transportation hubs (such as airports and train stations), or crossing U.S. borders.  DHS TRIP provides traveler redress intake and processing support while working with relevant DHS components to review and respond to requests for redress. This privacy impact assessment (PIA) update is necessary because the documentation required to resolve a request is now based upon the nature of the traveler’s complaint, rather than the previous requirement of a traveler submitting “at least three” documents for all requests.

Centralized Area Video Surveillance System

The Centralized Area Video Surveillance System (CAVSS) — a system of cameras and separate microphones recording video and audio, respectively— furthers the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) mission by collecting and maintaining video images and audio recordings of persons involved in any incidents or disturbances related to DHS/CBP law enforcement at the border, including inspection areas, while seeking entry or admission into the United States. CAVSS uses information technology to collect, maintain, and disseminate personally identifiable information (PII) in the form of video and audio recordings.
