Selling Personal Information in Alaska
In Alaska, if you are selling personal information, you may need to obtain consent from the individuals whose information you are selling. However, the requirements for obtaining consent may vary depending on the circumstances.
According to [2.1], if a state agency requests personal information that may be included in a public record directly from the person who is the subject of the information, the agency shall give the person a written notice at the time of the request that states the consequences to the person, if any, of not providing all or part of the requested information.
Additionally, [5.1] states that if a breach of the security of the information system containing personal information on a state resident that is maintained by an information recipient occurs, the information recipient is not required to comply with AS 45.48.010 — 45.48.030. However, immediately after the information recipient discovers the breach, the information recipient shall notify the information distributor who owns the personal information or who licensed the use of the personal information to the information recipient about the breach and cooperate with the information distributor as necessary to allow the information distributor to comply with (b) of this section.
Therefore, it is recommended that you consult with a legal professional to determine the specific requirements for obtaining consent to sell personal information in Alaska based on your particular circumstances.
