The real trick here is "third-party, secondary..."
 
What you paid for your house, when you renewed your driver's license, where  
you last voted, are all independently verifiable in reliable sources.  If  our 
policy stopped there we could write it.  However we also require that  
details about your biographed, be so interesting as to have already been  reported 
by someone other than these primary sources, and then in a third-party  
publication (not one owned or paid for by yourself the author, or by yourself  the 
subject).
 
That's why this example fails our policy.
