the commission pursuant to this chapter. In promulgating such rules  and
regulations the commission shall ensure, to the extent practicable, that
there  is  consistency  in  the  process followed under each division in
which an individual may voluntarily exclude themselves. Such  rules  and
regulations shall provide that:
  (i) an association or corporation licensed or enfranchised pursuant to
this  chapter maintain an updated list of all persons who have requested

to this chapter shall not offer coupons, market its  services,  or  send
advertisements to or otherwise solicit the patronage of, a self-excluded

  (iii)  no  employee or agent of an association or corporation licensed
or enfranchised pursuant to this chapter shall divulge  any  name  of  a
self-excluded person, other than to authorized surveillance, security or
other  personnel  whose  duties  and  functions  require  access to such
information, the division,  the  commission  or  their  duly  authorized
representatives.
  (b) An association or corporation licensed or enfranchised pursuant to
this  chapter  shall not be liable to any self-excluded person or to any
other party in  any  judicial  proceeding  for  any  harm,  monetary  or
otherwise,  which  may  arise  as  a  result of a self-excluded person's
engaging in gaming activity while on the list of self-excluded  persons;
provided  that  nothing  contained  in  this  paragraph  shall limit the
liability of any such association,  corporation,  or  facility  for  any
other  acts  or  omissions  under  any  other statutory law or under the
common law.
  (c) No voluntary order or request to exclude persons from entering the
premises of any  such  association,  corporation,  or  facility  may  be
rescinded,  canceled, or declared null and void until seven days after a
request has been received by such association, corporation, or  facility
to cancel such order or request.
  3. The commission shall promulgate rules and regulations under which a
person  with  an  account  authorized  pursuant  to section one thousand
twelve of this chapter may voluntarily place limits on  the  amounts  of
his  or  her  wagers  or potential wagers on a daily or weekly basis. No
order from a person to remove any limit placed on account  wagers  shall
be  effective  until seven days after it has been received by the entity
conducting account wagering.
