(b) Sets forth sufficient justification for the request for confidentiality; and

(c) Sets forth the document numbers of all records of a county recorder that contain confidential information.

2. Upon receipt of such an order, a county recorder shall keep such information confidential and shall not:

(a) Disclose the confidential information to anyone, unless disclosure is specifically authorized in writing by that person or entity; or

(b) Post the confidential information on the Internet or its successor, if any, or make the information available to others in any other way.
