"Private information" means unique identifiers, including a person's social security number, driver's license number, employee identification number, biometric identifiers, personal financial information, passwords or other access codes, medical records, home or personal telephone numbers, and personal email addresses. Private information also includes home address and personal license plates, except as otherwise provided by law or when compiled without possibility of attribution to any person.

If you need an accident/crash report please direct your request to Buycrash.com.  Please note there is a charge for full reports, however the "Driver's Information Exchange" is free to those involved in the accident.  Please click the button at the upper right: "Full Report" to change to the "Driver's Information Exchange Report Search".
