Section 15.23.330. Authorized notification of contributions.

	(a)  The department will provide a place on the online application form where an individual filing for a permanent fund dividend may authorize a limited release of information gathered in the form to the beneficiary organizations selected to receive a contribution from the individual's dividend. On the online application form, the department will include a question asking whether an individual consents to a release of the name and mailing address of the individual making the contribution to the beneficiary organization and the amount of the contribution. The release of information will be permitted to allow the beneficiary organization to acknowledge the contribution and to explain how the contribution will be expended. On the online application form, the department will include a disclosure that a beneficiary organization receiving information released under this section is not required to keep the information confidential.  
	(b)  On the online application form, the department will include a means by which the individual may answer "yes" or "no" to the authorization question. Failure to answer the authorization question will be considered to be a refusal of authorization to release information, other than information specifically authorized for release by law.  
	(c)  A parent or legal guardian may consent to the release of information authorized in this section on behalf of a minor child. A person authorized by 15 AAC 23.123 to file for a dividend on behalf of an adult may consent to the release of information authorized in this section on behalf of the adult.
