Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

All personal information relating to the customer of transmission, distribution, metering, or billing of natural gas service, or the customer purchasing the commodity of natural gas to be delivered through the distribution system of a natural gas provider, shall be maintained by the natural gas providers solely for the purpose of generating the bill for such sales and services, and shall not be divulged to any other persons with the exception of credit bureaus, collection agencies, and persons licensed to market natural gas service in the State of Illinois, without the written consent of the customer. It is an unfair or deceptive act or practice within the meaning of Section 2 of this Act for any person to violate this Section.
