820 IAC 5-1-33 Assurance of notification

Sec. 33. (a) Each time a customer uses a tanning facility, or executes or renews a contract to use a tanning facility, the customer shall, before using a sunlamp product, sign or acknowledge electronically a written statement that they: (1) have read and understood the warnings specified in sections 29 through 30 [sic] of this rule before using the device; (2) agree to use the protective eyewear that the tanning facility provides; (3) understand that some people who are not susceptible to tanning under natural sunlight may also not be susceptible to tanning under artificial light; and (4) have not used a tanning device within the past twenty-four (24) hours. (b) For visually handicapped persons, the warning statement shall be read by the operator in the presence of a witness. Both the witness and the operator shall sign the statement. (c) The owner or operator shall maintain, for a period not less than twenty-four (24) months, a record signed by the customer that they have read and understood the warning required in sections 29 through 30 [sic] of this rule. (d) Records of each customer's total number of tanning visits and times must be kept at the tanning facility and available for inspection for one (1) year. In addition, records up to five (5) years old must be provided to the board on request, although they need not be kept at the tanning facility. It is recommended that records be kept permanently, as potentially adverse health effects from tanning may not become apparent within five (5) years.
