Probably not (depending on exactly what it is), and they're legally required to give it out in certain circumstances.

Most employers won't do so without good reason, and the fact that it's not actually criminal doesn't mean that you couldn't pursue a civil case against them for doing it.

Yes. As a matter of law the employer can be mandated to turn over all of its records to the governemntal agency. ( thanks Patriot act.) The employer may do this themselves without prior notification from an angency when the employer feels that a crime may have been committed. There are very few exceptions to this but one example would be health information as it is protected.

No law prevents former employers from revealing almost anything about you as employee: pay rate, disciplines, attendance, skills, personality.

Employers seldom have truly personal info about you.
