Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) The unit shall:
(a) establish and operate a child protection registry to compile and secure a list of contact points
the unit has received pursuant to this section; or
(b) contract with a third party to establish and secure the registry described in Subsection (1)(a).
(2)
(a) A person may register a contact point with the unit pursuant to rules established by the unit
under Subsection 13-39-203(1) if:
(i) the contact point belongs to a minor;
(ii) a minor has access to the contact point; or
(iii) the contact point is used in a household in which a minor is present.
(b) A school or other institution that primarily serves minors may register its domain name with
the unit pursuant to rules made by the unit under Subsection 13-39-203(1).
(c) The unit shall provide a disclosure in a confirmation message sent to a person who registers
a contact point under this section that reads: "No solution is completely secure. The most
effective way to protect children on the Internet is to supervise use and review all email
messages and other correspondence. Under law, theft of a contact point from the Child
Protection Registry is a second degree felony. While every attempt will be made to secure
the Child Protection Registry, registrants and their guardians should be aware that their
contact points may be at a greater risk of being misappropriated by marketers who choose to
disobey the law."
(3) A person desiring to send a communication described in Subsection 13-39-202(1) to a contact
point or domain shall:
(a) use a mechanism established by rule made by the unit under Subsection 13-39-203(2); and

(b) pay a fee for use of the mechanism described in Subsection (3)(a) determined by the unit in
accordance with Section 63J-1-504.
(4) The unit may implement a program to offer discounted compliance fees to senders who meet
enhanced security conditions established and verified by the division, the third party registry
provider, or a designee.
(5) The contents of the registry, and any complaint filed about a sender who violates this chapter,
are not subject to public disclosure under Title 63G, Chapter 2, Government Records Access
and Management Act.
(6) The state shall promote the registry on the state's official Internet website.
