The regulations of the commission shall establish procedures for\nplacements on, and removals from, the list of self-excluded persons.\nSuch regulations shall establish procedures for the transmittal to\nlicensed gaming facilities of identifying information concerning\nself-excluded persons, and shall require licensed gaming facilities to\nestablish procedures designed, at a minimum, to remove self-excluded\npersons from targeted mailings or other forms of advertising or\npromotions and deny self-excluded persons access to credit,\ncomplimentaries, check cashing privileges, club programs, and other\nsimilar benefits.\n 3. A licensed gaming facility or employee thereof acting reasonably\nand in good faith shall not be liable to any self-excluded person or to\nany other party in any judicial proceeding for any harm, monetary or\notherwise, which may arise as a result of:\n (a) the failure of a licensed gaming facility to withhold gaming\nprivileges from, or restore gaming privileges to, a self-excluded\nperson; or\n (b) otherwise permitting a self-excluded person to engage in gaming\nactivity in such licensed gaming facility while on the list of\nself-excluded persons.\n 4. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the commission's\nlist of self-excluded persons shall not be open to public inspection.\nNothing herein, however, shall be construed to prohibit a gaming\nfacility licensee from disclosing the identity of persons self-excluded\npursuant to this section to affiliated gaming entities in this state or\nother jurisdictions for the limited purpose of assisting in the proper\nadministration of responsible gaming programs operated by such gaming\naffiliated entities.\n 5. A licensed gaming facility or employee thereof shall not be liable\nto any self-excluded person or to any other party in any judicial\nproceeding for any harm, monetary or otherwise, which may arise as a\nresult of disclosure or publication in any manner, other than a\nwillfully unlawful disclosure or publication, of the identity of any\nself-excluded person.\n
