APPENDIX A
ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE
CONFIDENTIALITY REQUIREMENTS
Confidential Information
1.1 "Confidential Information" is defined in A.R.S. § 42-2001. Confidential
Information may not be disclosed except as provided by statute. A.R.S. §§ 42-2001
through 42-2004.
1.2 "Tax Information" as defined in this Agreement is Confidential Information.
1.3 Disclosure of aggregated financial information. Under no circumstance shall
aggregated financial information related to transaction privilege taxes allow any
person who is not authorized to receive Tax Information to identify or discover the
financial information of an individual taxpayer.
(a) Except as provided in Section 1.3(b) of this Appendix, City/Town will
disclose aggregated financial information in accordance with the
Department's standard:
(1) City/Town shall only disclose aggregated financial information
from not less than ten (10) taxpayers within the political boundaries
of City/Town.
(2) No individual taxpayer's financial information should be discernible
due to its relative size compared to other members of the aggregated
group. For example, if one of the taxpayers in the data set represents
90% or more of the data point, then that data point must not be
disclosed, regardless of the number of taxpayers.
(b) City/Town may disclose its aggregated financial information from less than
ten (10) taxpayers provided City/Town first determines the aggregated data
could not potentially reveal the financial information of an individual
taxpayer. Such a determination shall take all the following into
consideration:
(1) Ownership. All taxpayers with common ownership entities shall be
considered a single taxpayer for aggregation purposes; and
(2) Proportionality. No individual taxpayer's financial information
should be discernible due to its relative size compared to other
members of the aggregated group; and
September 2023 Page 29 of 39
Exhibit A to Resolution No. 2023-116
ADOR-Municipal IGA for TPT Administration
(3) Any other factor that might allow any person who is not authorized
to receive Tax Information to identify or discover the financial
information of an individual taxpayer.
2. Protecting Information
2.1 City/Town must identify all places, both physical and logical, where City/Town
receives, processes, and stores Tax Information and create a plan to adequately
secure those areas.
2.2 Tax Information must be protected during transmission, storage, use, and
destruction. City/Town must have written policies, standards, and procedures to
document how it protects its information systems, including Tax Information so
that it conforms to the State of Arizona statutes A.R.S. §§ 42-2001 through 42-2004
and policies, standards, and procedures found on the Arizona Strategic Enterprise
Technology ("ASET") website at aset.az.gov/resources/policies-standards-and-
procedures or ASET's successor agency or website and Arizona Department of
Homeland Security's website at https://azdohs.gov/information-security-policies-
standards-and-procedures.
2.3 Department staff and authorized City/Town staff are prohibited from inspecting
Tax Information unless they have a business reason. Browsing through Tax
Information concerning friends, neighbors, family members, or people in the news
is strictly prohibited.
2.4 All removable media, including paper and CDs, containing Tax Information must
be secured when not in use and after normal business hours by placing all materials
in a locked drawer or cabinet. During use, Tax Information must be protected so
that it is not visible to members of the public or anyone without a business need for
the information.
2.5 All individuals accessing or storing Tax Information from an alternative work site
must enter into a signed agreement that specifies how the Tax Information will be
protected while at that site. Only trusted employees shall be permitted to access Tax
Information from alternative sites. Tax Information may not be accessed while in
public places such as restaurants, lounges, or pools.
2.6 Tax Information may not be discussed in elevators, restrooms, the cafeteria, or other
public areas. Terminals should be placed in such a manner that prohibits public
viewing of Tax Information.

others cannot see the Tax Information. When sending Tax Information by fax, a
cover sheet should always be used.

the confidentiality laws and requirements to protect such information before being
given access to such information and annually thereafter. They must sign

Exhibit A to Resolution No. 2023-116
ADOR-Municipal IGA for TPT Administration
certificates after the training acknowledging that they understand their
responsibilities. City/Town must keep records to document this training and
certification and submit a copy of the certification to the Department.
3. Disclosure of Information
3.1 Tax Information may only be disclosed as permitted by A.R.S. § 42-2003.

response to a public records request except as authorized by law. A state agency,
including political subdivisions (City/Town), may deny inspection of public
records if the records are deemed confidential by statute. Berry v. State, 145 Ariz.
12, 13 699 P.2d 387, 388 (App. 1985).

Exhibit A to Resolution No. 2023-116
ADOR-Municipal IGA for TPT Administration

and storage before it is destroyed, such as periodic inspections of the vendor.
4.5 Computer system components and devices, such as copiers and scanners, which
have been used to store or process Tax Information may not be repurposed for non -
tax administration uses unless the memory or hard drive of the device is sanitized
to ensure under no circumstances Tax Information can be restored or recovered.

protected. City/Town shall provide audit records and evidence of system and
