Summary/Abstract: Opponents of European Data Retention Directive frequently claim the non-existence of retention of traffic and localization data in the United States. In USA there does not exist a cohesive legal regulation of the data retention. The obligation is laid down by particular acts. Albeit, some data need not to be retained, the Congress introduced a bill significantly extending the obligations of providers. This paper deals with the legal regulation of the data retention in the United States.
