Abstract
Systems and methods disclosed herein relate to a label and a method of application of the label on a container that both protects confidential information and functions to allow for the placement of auxiliary labels even if an overall length of a label exceeds the perimeter of the container to which it is applied. The auxiliary labels are disposed in a fanned fashion, attached to a primary label portion by, for example, a micro perforation line, and where the auxiliary labels are separated from each other by micro perforation lines and where the adhesive back of each pair of auxiliary labels are attached to each other in order to form a plurality of protrusions.
