A. All law enforcement organizations in the state of Oklahoma shall be permitted to request to a county assessor that personal information regarding undercover or covert law enforcement officers not be made publicly available on the Internet, but instead kept in a secure location at a county assessor's office where it may be made available to authorized persons pursuant to law.
B. For purposes of this section, "personal information" shall mean:
1. The home address of a person;
2. The home address of the spouse, domestic partner or minor child of a person; and
3. Any telephone number or electronic mail address of a person.
C. Any law enforcement official who wishes to have the personal information of an undercover or covert officer that is contained in the records of a county assessor be kept confidential must obtain an order of a court that requires the county assessor to maintain the personal information of the person or entity in a confidential manner. Such an order must be based on a sworn affidavit by the law enforcement official, which affidavit:
1. States that the individual whose information is to be kept confidential is an undercover or covert officer; and
2. Sets forth sufficient justification for the request for confidentiality.
Upon receipt of such an order, a county assessor shall keep such information confidential and shall not disclose the confidential information to anyone not specifically authorized by law to view the information, unless disclosure is specifically authorized in writing by that person or the affiant. A county assessor shall not post such confidential information on the Internet.
