New Jersey Gov. Jon S. Corzine signed a new law on January 13 regulating online dating services.The new law requires online dating services to disclose prominently on their sign-up pages whether they conduct criminal history background screenings on their members.

The disclosure can be made either through email, via a "click-through" agreement, or something similar requiring New Jersey residents to acknowledge receipt of notification, on the user profile, on the Internet dating service home page, or on the web page a New Jersey resident would use to register.
