A notary uses a secure third-party storage service for Part 182 records, protected by password-based access controls. Which statement is correct?

A

Third-party storage is forbidden because all records must remain on the notary’s personal device.

B

Third-party storage is allowed if safeguarded through a password or other secure means of authentication or access.

C

Third-party storage is allowed only for audio-video recordings and never for any other required records.

D

Third-party storage is allowed only if the county clerk approves the vendor in writing.

Correct Answer

B. Third-party storage is allowed if safeguarded through a password or other secure means of authentication or access.

AI Explanation

Part 182 permits secure third-party record storage. 19 NYCRR §182.9(a) states that record storage may be made through a third party if safeguarded through a password or other secure means of authentication or access. In practice, the rule focuses on secure access and producibility, not on whether the server is personally owned by the notary.
