Report Link New Jersey Enacts Tough Legislation to Combat Identity Theft.
Jackson Lewis LLP - March 13, 2006
In one of his final actions as the Governor of New Jersey, Richard J. Cody signed the New Jersey Identity Theft Prevention Act, which took effect on January 1, 2006. The ITPA seeks to safeguard sensitive and identifying personal information, such Social Security numbers, from being wrongly intercepted and intentionally misused for such purposes as gaining access to bank and credit card accounts, opening new accounts, taking out a loan, renting an apartment, or even perpetrating other crimes.
Report Link New Jersey Identity Theft Prevention Act Takes Effect January 1 (pdf).
Vedder Price - January 04, 2006
New Jersey’s Identity Theft Prevention Act (ITPA), effective January 1, 2006, creates new responsibilities for employers regarding the handling and disposal of personal information received from employees and other individuals. Specifically, the ITPA (1) imposes a duty to destroy records that contain personal information and that are no longer to be retained, (2) imposes a duty to disclose unauthorized access to personal information to New Jersey police and to those individuals whose personal information may have been accessed, and (3) controls employers’ display and use of Social Security numbers. Additionally, the ITPA provides an individual with the ability to implement a “security freeze,” thereby limiting third-party access to his or her consumer reports.
