Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Part, the authority may, prior to making records available for inspection or copying, delete such identifying details as the authority may deem appropriate to prevent an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy will be deemed to occur by the disclosure of the information, should it constitute a record under this Part enumerated below in this section, unless the person to whom the record pertains consents in writing to disclosure of such information or unless such information pertains to the person requesting same and such person presents reasonable proof of identity:
(a) such personal matters as may have been reported in confidence to the authority and which are not relevant to the ordinary work of the authority;
(b) employment, medical or credit histories or personal references of applicants for employment;
(c) items involving the medical or personal records of a client or patient in a medical facility;
(d) items of a personal nature, when disclosure would result in economic or personal hardship to the subject party, and such records are not relevant to the work of the agency requesting or maintaining it; and
(e) lists of names and addresses, if such lists would be used for commercial or fund-raising purposes.
