CM/ECF filers should be aware of the potential to inadvertently share restricted documents when using third-party services or software, such as CourtDrive, DocketBird, PacerPro, RECAP, etc.  Restricted documents include filings in Social Security appeal and civil immigration cases and sensitive documents filed in criminal cases that are restricted to case participants.  Sharing your PACER account credentials with a third-party service provider or designating that provider as a secondary recipient of a Notice of Electronic Filing provides access to restricted case information that is transmitted through CM/ECF.  Please use caution in your computer security practices to protect restricted documents that are not accessible to the public.
