Daniel's Law Portal

In November 2020, Governor Murphy signed Daniel’s Law, which amended the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) and other statutes protecting personal information for certain persons in public service. Specifically, Daniel’s Law is designed to expand protections from public exposure for personal information about active and retired judges, law enforcement officers, and prosecutors, and their immediate family.

The indexing of covered documents remain discoverable in online and in-person electronic searches, however the images and physical book pages are inaccessible to the public. If you are a registered title search entity and are seeking an unredacted copy of a covered record, please contact the Gloucester County Clerk’s Record Room at 856-853-3259. 

Individuals protected under Daniel’s Law will need to register on the Daniel’s Law Portal through the New Jersey Office of Information Privacy.

For requests to withdraw your information from Daniel's Law protection please contact the New Jersey Office of Information Privacy at 609-815-3939.
