State Fund Personal Data Concerns: CASE Can Help. CASE has received a number of inquiries from members at State Compensation Insurance Fund about the extent to which State Fund is collecting private, personal information about employees above and beyond the basic name, social security number and other data necessary to process payroll and benefit information. Fortunately, California has some privacy protection laws that may apply to State Fund which could allow employees to request that State Fund and all third party contractors delete this type of personal information. This deletion request can be made by you, or an authorized agent on your behalf. If you would like us to serve as your registered agent for this limited purpose, you simply need to submit this form. Any member who submits a completed form by August 16 will have deletion requests submitted to State Fund by CASE on their behalf.
