Can I use third-party project management tools that collect personal information in Montana? What are the requirements?

Based on the Montana Code Annotated, there are no specific provisions that address the use of third-party project management tools that collect personal information. However, state agencies must ensure that any tool used to collect personal information complies with the procedures developed to protect personal information as required by MTCO 2-6-1502 [1.1] and the requirements of MTCO 2-17-552 [3.3] if the personally identifiable information may be used for a purpose other than the express purpose of the website or may be given or sold to a third party, except as required by law.

Additionally, the Montana Code Annotated provides specific uses for the disclosure of personal information, including highly restricted personal information, from a motor vehicle record to a person who represents that the use of the information will be strictly limited to one or more of the following: (i) a federal, state, or local government agency, including a court or a law enforcement agency, and any individual acting on behalf of the agency in carrying out its functions, including representatives of the news media for a legitimate law enforcement purpose, as determined by the department; or (ii) a person, organization, or entity, upon the express consent of the person to whom the information pertains [MTCO 61-11-508][2.2].
