Right to Secrecy
At the request of the provider of such information, information about
the thoughts, commerce, activities, and engagements of an individual,
or the commerce, activities, and engagements of an incorporated
entity, must be guarded in confidence by all who are privy to this
information only by reason of deliberate communication or transactions
with said individual or incorporated entity, unless the subjects of
the information have provided permission for disclosure, or in a
submission to the judge of a court to determine admissibility as
evidence, or a court has ordered that the information be produced as
evidence in an official proceeding.
If such information is produced under court order, it is made
available only to the judge of the court, and the prosecution and
defense in the case including their attorneys, unless and until such
time as a conviction has been registered, all avenues of appeal have
been exhausted, and the trial minutes are published, in which case
such information must be included with the published trial minutes if
and only if the judge who issued the final decision relied upon
said information in making his decision.
No information originally gathered through surveillance of an
individual or his communications and property can be made to directly
produce or increase revenue for the individual, organization, or
incorporated entity, that performed, sponsored, or directed the
surveillance, without the express permission of the surveiled
individual.
Information gathered by the state, or by a private party in
performance of a contract with the state, or subcontract within the
purview of a state contract, through surveillance of an individual,
cannot be divulged unless the subjects of the information have
provided permission for disclosure, or to law enforcement officials
engaged in relevant investigation, or in a submission to the judge
of a court to determine admissibility as evidence, or a court has
ordered that the information be produced as evidence in an official
proceeding.
