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 New Jersey's "Daniel's Law" to protect members of the Legislature and municipal court administrators by requiring private entities to prevent disclosure of their home addresses and unpublished telephone numbers. It mandates the Office of Information Privacy to establish a secure portal that private entities must access at least every 45 days to verify and comply with redaction requests. Private entities must pay annual fees, certify their compliance with the portal, and face $200 civil penalties for each 45-day period of noncompliance. The law specifically exempts news media from liability for previously published information and certain entities covered by federal privacy laws like HIPAA.
