 Sec. 10.
    (1) Upon request, the secretary of state may furnish a list of information from the records of
 the department maintained under this act to a federal, state, or local governmental agency for
 use in carrying out the agency's functions, or to a private person or entity acting on behalf of a
 governmental agency for use in carrying out the agency's functions. Unless otherwise
 prohibited by law, the secretary of state may charge the requesting agency a preparation fee to
 cover the cost of preparing and furnishing a list provided under this subsection if the cost of
 preparation exceeds $25.00, and use the revenues received from the service to defray
 necessary expenses. If the secretary of state sells a list of information under this subsection to
 a member of the state legislature, the secretary of state shall charge the same fee as the fee for
 the sale of information under subsection (2) unless the list of information is requested by the
 member of the legislature to carry out a legislative function. The secretary of state may require
 the requesting agency to furnish 1 or more blank computer tapes, cartridges, or other
 electronic media and may require the agency to execute a written memorandum of agreement
 as a condition of obtaining a list of information under this subsection.
    (2) The secretary of state may contract for the sale of lists of records maintained under this
 act in bulk, in addition to those lists distributed at cost or at no cost under this section, for any
 of the purposes permitted under section 8(3). The secretary of state shall require each
 purchaser of information in bulk to execute a written purchase contract. The secretary of state
 shall fix a market-based price for the sale of lists of bulk information, which may include
 personal information. The proceeds from each sale shall be used by the secretary of state to
 defray the costs of list preparation and for other necessary or related expenses.
    (3) The secretary of state or any other state agency shall not sell or furnish any list of
 information under subsection (2) for the purpose of surveys, marketing, and solicitations. The
 secretary of state shall ensure that personal information disclosed in bulk will be used, rented,
 or sold solely for uses permitted under this act.
    (4) The secretary of state may insert any safeguard the secretary considers reasonable or
 necessary, including a bond requirement, in a memorandum of agreement or purchase contract
 executed under this section, to ensure that the information provided or sold is used only for a
 permissible use and that the rights of individuals and of the department are protected.
    (5) An authorized recipient of personal information disclosed under this section who resells
 or rediscloses the information for any of the permissible purposes described in section 8(3)
 shall do both of the following:
    (a) Make and keep for a period of not less than 5 years records identifying each person who
 received personal information from the authorized recipient and the permitted purpose for
 which it was obtained.




                                                                   Michigan Compiled Laws Complete Through PA 91 of 2026

    (b) Allow a representative of the secretary of state, upon request, to inspect and copy
 records identifying each person who received personal information from the authorized
 recipient and the permitted purpose for which it was obtained.
    (6) The secretary of state shall not disclose a list based on driving behavior or sanctions to a
 nongovernmental agency, including an individual.
