§ 7.73 - Protection of personal privacy.

(a) Any of the following personnel, medical or similar records are within the statutory exemption if disclosure would result in a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy:

(1) Personnel and background records personal to any officer or employee of the Department, or other person, including his or her residential address.

(2) Medical histories and medical records concerning individuals, including applicants for licenses.

(3) Any other detailed record containing personal information identifiable with a particular person.

(b) The purpose of this section is to provide a proper balance between the protection of personal privacy and the preservation of the public's right to Department information by authorizing the protection of intimate details of a personal nature which, if released, might unjustifiably invade an individual's privacy.
