Should any person's sensitive personal identifying information appear on any document prepared or submitted for recording, the preparer, submitter, or anyone in an agency relationship with the person may redact, remove, or delete the sensitive personal identifying information before submission to the recorder of deeds. Any such redaction, removal, or deletion shall not in any way affect the legal status of the transaction described in the document. The recorder of deeds shall not alter or modify any document in the official record except as otherwise provided by law.
