Electronic Privacy Information Center

Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) is a public interest research group in Washington, D.C. EPIC was established in 1994 to focus public attention on emerging civil liberties issues and to protect privacy, the First Amendment and constitutional values in the information age. EPIC pursues activities including privacy research, public education, conferences, litigation, publications and advocacy.
EPIC maintains web sites and publishes the online ''EPIC Alert'' every two weeks on privacy and civil liberties issues. EPIC also publishes ''Privacy and Human Rights, Litigation Under the Federal Open Government Laws, The Public Voice WSIS Sourcebook, The Privacy Law Sourcebook,'' and ''The Consumer Law Sourcebook''. EPIC litigates privacy, First Amendment, and Freedom of Information Act cases. EPIC advocates for strong privacy safeguards.
In addition to maintaining privacy.org, EPIC also coordinates the Public Voice coalition, and the Privacy Coalition.
== Background ==


EPIC was founded in 1994 as a joint project of the Fund for Constitutional Government and Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility. Early on, the organization focused on government surveillance and cryptography issues, such as the Clipper Chip and the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act. After becoming an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) organization in November 2000, EPIC continued to work on governmental issues: surveillance; transparency, using the Freedom of Information Act to publicize documents; and the security, verifiability, and privacy of electronic voting. It has also taken up consumer privacy issues, such as identity theft, phone record security, medical record privacy and commercial data mining.
EPIC is registered as a non-profit public charity, and receives most of its funding from contributors, as well as through grants and publication sales. EPIC has an advisory board, a board of directors and a small paid staff.
