New Jersey § 56:11-25

§ 56:11-25.

a. Any person, firm, partnership, association or corporation which accepts credit

cards used exclusively for credit card transactions shall only use credit card forms

which: (1) are carbonless; (2) after the transaction is complete, do not render a separate piece of paper, carbon

or otherwise, which readily identifies the cardholder by name or number, other than

those necessary for use by the seller, credit cardholder and issuer to complete the

credit card transaction; (3) are carbonized backed forms that may be retained for recordkeeping purposes of

the seller, the seller's agent or subcontractor, the issuer or the credit cardholder;

or (4) have a perforated or split carbon, half of which is disposable, and upon completion

of the transaction the disposable portion of the carbon renders only half of the cardholder's

name and account number. b. No person, firm, partnership, association or corporation which accepts credit cards

for the transaction of business shall be deemed to have violated the provisions of

subsection a. of this section, if that person, firm, partnership, association or corporation

shows by a preponderance of evidence that the violation was not intentional and resulted

from bona fide error made notwithstanding the maintenance of procedures reasonably

adopted to avoid any such error. c. The provisions of subsection a. of this section shall not apply to forms used for

a special purpose incidental to the credit card transaction but related to shipping,

delivery or installment of purchased merchandise or special orders.
