This section describes how various laws control the disclosure or confidentiality of personal information which we keep. We must consider these laws in the following order:
(a) Some laws require us to disclose information (§401.120); some laws require us to withhold information (§401.125). These laws control whenever they apply.
(b) If no law of this type applies in a given case, then we must look to FOIA principles. See §401.130.
(c) When FOIA principles do not require disclosure, we may disclose information if both the Privacy Act and section 1106 of the Social Security Act permit the disclosure.
