Will my response be confidential?
Yes. The U.S. Census Bureau is required by law to protect this information. The Census Bureau
is not permitted to publicly release your responses in a way that could identify you. We are
conducting this survey under the authority of Title 13, U.S. Code, Sections 141 and 193.
Federal law protects your privacy and keeps your answers confidential (Title 13, U.S. Code,
Section 9). Per the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015, your data are protected
from cybersecurity risks through screening of the systems that transmit your data.
Am I required to fill out the survey?
Yes. Your response to this survey is required by law (Title 13, U.S. Code, Sections 141, 193,

randomly selected representative of your community, you are the voice of your neighbors and
peers. To create an accurate picture of your community, it is critical that you respond.
How will the Census Bureau use the information I provide?
By law, the Census Bureau can only use your responses to produce statistics. Your information
will be used in combination with information from other households to produce data for your
community. Similar data will be produced for communities across Puerto Rico and the United
States. We may combine your answers with information that you gave to other agencies to
enhance the statistical uses of these data. This information will be given the same protections
as your survey information. Based on the information that you provide, you may be asked to
participate in other Census Bureau surveys that are voluntary.
