Sec. 15-1404. Security of information.
(a)If a holder is required to include confidential information in a report to the administrator, the information must be provided by a secure means.

(d)The administrator and the administrator's agent shall either return in a secure manner or destroy in a manner consistent with the Personal Information Protection Act all confidential information no longer reasonably needed under this Act.
