A “Commercial Purpose” means the use of a public record for the purpose of sale or resale including any of the following:

  • Producing a document containing all or part of the copy, printout or photograph for sale, or
  • Obtaining of names and addresses from such public records for the purpose of solicitation or for creating a list for resale, or
  • For any purpose in which the purchaser can reasonably anticipate the receipt of monetary gain from the direct or indirect use of such public records. (A.R.S.§39-121.03(D)).
