Body

The Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004 (LEOSA) exempts “qualified law enforcement officers” and “qualified retired law enforcement officers” from most state and local laws prohibiting the carriage of concealed firearms. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its law enforcement Components have established procedures with respect to qualified retiring, retired, separating, and separated law enforcement officers (LEO) and the application of the relevant provisions of LEOSA. This Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) documents how DHS collects, uses, and maintains personally identifiable information (PII) of LEOs who apply to carry concealed firearms pursuant to LEOSA. November 2020.
