[§708-8105]  Credit card lists prohibited;
penalty.  (1)  It is unlawful for any person, business, corporation,
partnership, or other agency to make available, lend, donate, or sell any list
or portion of a list of any credit cardholders and their addresses and account
numbers to any third party without the express written permission of the issuer
and the cardholders; except that a credit card issuer may make a list of its
cardholders, including names, addresses, and account numbers, available,
without the permission of the cardholders, to a third party pursuant to a
contract, if the contract contains language requiring the third party to bind
through contract each of its subcontractors by including language prohibiting
the divulging of any part of the list for any purpose by the subcontractors
except to fulfill and service orders pursuant to the contract between the
credit card issuer and the authorized third party.



Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
section, a "consumer reporting agency", as that term is defined by
the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public Law No. 91-508, may provide lists of
credit account names, addresses, and account numbers to third parties pursuant
to that Act.  Nothing in this section shall make unlawful or otherwise prohibit
the transmittal of any such information to or from a "consumer reporting
agency", as that term is defined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, or a
"debt collector", as that term is defined in the Fair Debt Collection
Practices Act, Public Law No. 95-109.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this
section, it is lawful for any corporation to make available, lend, donate, or
sell any list or portion of a list of any credit cardholders and their
addresses and account numbers to a subsidiary or the parent corporation of such
corporation or to another subsidiary of the common parent corporation.



(2)  Violation of this section is a
misdemeanor. [L 1986, c 314, pt of §61]
