Summary
Federal Agency Data-Mining Reporting Act of 2007 - Requires the head of each federal department or agency that is engaged in any activity to use or develop data-mining to report to Congress on all such activities. Requires that such report be made available to the public, except for classified information. Defines "data-mining" as a query, search, or other analysis of one or more electronic databases, where: (1) a federal agency or a non-federal entity acting on the government's behalf is conducting the analysis to find a predictive pattern or anomaly indicating terrorist or criminal activity; and (2) the search does not use a specific individual's personal identifiers to retrieve information. Requires annual updates, including regarding any new uses or development of data-mining technology.
