The commission shall make the current SEP List available to Retail and Mobile licensees for download. (2) Each Retail licensee and Mobile licensee shall submit to the commission a plan for the dissemination of the information regarding persons placed on the SEP List, as well as persons who have been removed from the SEP List. The plan shall be designed to safeguard, as best as is reasonably possible, the confidentiality of the information but shall include dissemination to the agents or employees of the licensee whose duties require enforcement of the SEP List. Licensees or agents or employees of the licensee may not disclose the name of, or any information about, a person who has been placed on or removed from the SEP List to anyone other than employees and agents of the licensee whose duties and functions require access to the information. The plan must be approved by the commission. All information disclosed to any licensee regarding anyone placed GAMING COMMISSION on or removed from the SEP List shall be deemed a closed record; however, the information may be disclosed as authorized by the individual seeking placement on the SEP List, by law, and through the provisions contained in this chapter. (3) Retail licensees and Mobile licensees may disclose the information contained in the applications to its affiliates or agents of such affiliates who require this information in the performance of their duties. The disclosed information shall be used solely for the limited purposes of assisting in the administration of problem and responsible gaming programs and allowing the affiliate or agent of the affiliate to determine whether to deny a person on the SEP List access to sports wagering or to areas where sports wagering is conducted. Licensees may also disclose the information contained in the applications to entities engaged in marketing activities on their behalf, solely to the extent necessary to prohibit excluded individuals from receiving direct marketing or promotional communications. The licensee is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any information disclosed. Such information shall not be used to deny services unrelated to sports wagering to a person on the SEP List. AUTHORITY: section 39(g) of Article III, Mo.
