 5 § 170-j. Privacy protections for individuals with autism. 1. Every
 6 state agency, board, department, commission, political subdivision,

 9 the informed, written consent of such person.

 11 board, department, commission, political subdivision, grantee or
 12 contractor shall be found to be in violation of this section when
 13 providing such autism-related information in response to court orders,
 14 service delivery needs or lawful mandates and such state agency, board,
 15 department, commission, political subdivision, grantee or contractor
 16 takes steps to limit and anonymize its data.

 22 obtain civil penalties of not more than two thousand five hundred
 23 dollars per violation. For the purposes of this subdivision, each person

 25 considered a separate violation.
