97B.17 Records maintained.

The department shall establish and maintain records of each member, including but not limited to, the amount of wages of each member, the contribution of each member with interest, and interest dividends credited. These records are the basis for the compilation of the retirement benefits provided under this chapter. The following records maintained under this chapter containing personal identifiable information are not public records for the purposes of chapter 22:

1. Records containing social security numbers.

2. Records listing designated beneficiaries.

3. Records specifying amounts accumulated in members' active accounts.

4. Records containing names, addresses, and amounts of monthly benefits to which members or their beneficiaries are entitled.

5. Records containing names, addresses, and amounts of lump sum refund payments to terminated members or their beneficiaries.

Summary information concerning the demographics of the members and general statistical information concerning the system is subject to chapter 22, as well as aggregate information by category.

However, the department's records are evidence for the purpose of proceedings before the department or any court of the amounts of wages and the periods in which they were paid, and the absence of an entry as to a member's wages in the records for any period is evidence that wages were not paid that member in the period.
