_The information collected by MAC on various forms is used to help improve programs for seniors, and/or to find out if you qualify for a program.  It may be shared with the Maryland Department of Aging ("MDoA"). MAC, Area Agency on Aging, its subcontractors and MDoA will not voluntarily share any facts that identify you with anyone except people working for them who need the facts to perform their jobs.  Facts that identify you include your name, social security number, address, and telephone number. You may refuse to give some or all of the information asked for.  However, if a program is only for people who meet qualifications (such as age, income, or health condition) and you do not share the facts that show you qualify, then you will not be able to take part in that program.  MAC staff can tell you exactly which facts are needed to show that you qualify for a program. You may look at a record that identifies you.  You may do this to make sure the facts are correct. 

To look at such a record you must write to either of the addresses below:
