(a) The Division shall maintain the self-exclusion list and Internet self-exclusion list and shall notify each casino licensee of any addition to or deletion from the lists by transmitting a notice directly to each casino licensee.

(b) Each casino licensee shall maintain its own copy of each list and shall establish procedures to ensure that its copy of each list is updated. All appropriate employees and agents of the casino licensee notified of any addition to or deletion from either self-exclusion list shall update the lists accordingly. For the self-exclusion list, changes shall be made within five business days after the day the notice is transmitted pursuant to (a) above. For the Internet self-exclusion list, changes shall be made within 24 hours after the notice is transmitted pursuant to (a) above. The notice provided by the Division shall include the name and date of birth of any person whose name shall be removed from the applicable list and the following information concerning any person whose name shall be added to the applicable list:

1. The name, including any aliases or nicknames;

2. The date of birth;

7. If applicable, a copy of the photograph taken by the Division pursuant to 13:69G-2.2(b).

(c) Information furnished to or obtained by the Division pursuant to this subchapter shall be deemed confidential and not be disclosed except in accordance with this subchapter and N.J.A.C. 13:69-4.

(d) Except as provided in (d)2 and 3 below, no casino licensee or employee or agent thereof shall disclose the name of, or any information about, any person who has requested self-exclusion or Internet self-exclusion to anyone other than employees and agents of the casino licensee whose duties and functions require access to such information.

1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a casino licensee may disclose the name of and information about a self-excluded or Internet self-excluded person to appropriate employees of other casino licensees in Atlantic City for the purpose of alerting other casino licensees that a self-excluded or Internet self-excluded person has tried to gamble or obtain gaming related privileges or benefits in the casino licensee's casino or simulcasting facility, or Internet gaming site.

2. It shall be permissible for a casino licensee, or an employee or agent thereof, to disclose the names of persons on the self-exclusion list or Internet self-exclusion list to a third party that is registered or licensed by the Division pursuant to N.J.A.C. 13:69J for the purpose of allowing the third party to remove the names of such persons from a targeted mailing or other advertising or promotion to be made on behalf of a casino licensee or any of its Internet gaming affiliates. The company to whom such self-exclusion list is disclosed by a casino licensee shall be prohibited from distributing or disclosing the list to the public or to any other party and shall be required to establish procedures approved by the Division to ensure the self-exclusion list or Internet self-exclusion list is not disclosed.

3. A licensed or registered company that obtains the self-exclusion list or Internet self-exclusion list from a casino licensee shall be permitted to use the list solely to exclude names or addresses from a marketing campaign on behalf of a casino or Internet gaming operator. Such company may not use the self-exclusion list or Internet self-exclusion list for any other type of marketing or for any other purpose whatsoever.

(e) For Internet self-exclusion, any open wagers shall be voided within three days of the notice of self-exclusion. Any remaining balance of $ 1.00 or more in a patron's Internet gaming account balance shall be refunded no later than 90 days after the notice of self-exclusion. Balances of less than $ 1.00 shall remain in the account and shall either become dormant or shall be available if the patron is subsequently removed from the self-exclusion list prior to the account becoming dormant.
