Expands protections under "Daniel's Law"; requires Office of Information Privacy to establish portal for prohibiting disclosure of personal information by private entities and establishes penalties for failure to comply.

This bill expands protections under "Daniel's Law" to include members of the New Jersey Legislature and municipal court administrators, who can now request privacy for their home addresses and unpublished telephone numbers. It requires the Office of Information Privacy to establish a secure portal where authorized persons can submit requests to prevent private entities from disclosing covered persons' personal information. Private entities (businesses or associations that disclose personal information online) must access the portal at least once every 45 days to check for approved redaction requests and face a $200 civil penalty per 45-day period for failure to comply. The bill defines "covered information" as home addresses or unpublished telephone numbers of covered persons and establishes procedures for verification, security, and enforcement of these privacy protections. These changes aim to enhance safety for public officials by limiting public access to their personal information.
