AI Summary

This bill amends the Mississippi Public Records Act of 1983 to define and exempt Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Personally Identifiable Information (Protected PII) from public disclosure. PII is defined as any information that can be used to identify an individual, either alone or when combined with other information, and its status as PII depends on the risk of identification. Protected PII includes specific types of information when combined with an individual's name or initial and last name, such as Social Security numbers, home addresses, driver's license numbers, dates of birth, financial account numbers, and personnel or medical records. The bill exempts both PII and Protected PII from public access, building upon existing exemptions for certain information related to law enforcement officers, judges, and victims.
