Wash. Admin. Code § 446-20-180 - Dissemination pursuant to contract for services

(1) Criminal history record information which includes nonconviction data may be disseminated pursuant to a contract to provide services, as set forth in RCW 10.97.050(5). The contract must contain provisions giving notice to the individual or agency to which the information is to be disseminated that the use of such information is subject to the provisions of chapter 10.97 RCW and these regulations, and federal statutes and regulations, which must be cited with express reference to the penalties provided for a violation thereof.

(2) When a criminal justice agency uses an information system containing criminal history record information that is controlled and managed by a noncriminal justice agency, the noncriminal justice agency may disseminate criminal history record information only as authorized by the criminal justice agency. Authorization must be established in a contract between the criminal justice agency and the noncriminal justice agency providing the management service or support. Any criminal justice agency entering a contract with a noncriminal justice agency must require that the noncriminal justice agency and personnel, who utilize criminal history record information, meet the same physical security and personnel standards as set forth by the Washington state patrol under RCW 10.97.090.

All programs, tapes, source documents, listings, and other developmental or related data processing information containing or permitting any person to gain access to criminal history record information, and all personnel involved in the development, maintenance, or operation of an automated information system containing criminal history record information, are subject to the requirements of RCW 10.97.050(5) and these regulations. A statement to this effect must be included in the contract.

The contract for support services must be substantially similar to that set forth in WAC 446-20-440.
