There’s a lot of movement in the US state privacy landscape heading into 2023. With the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and Virginia’s Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA) in effect as of January 1, 2023, the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) and Connecticut Data Protection Act (CTDPA) going into effect in July 2023, and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA) going into effect at the end of the year on December 31, 2023 – that’s five new regulations to keep an eye on and ensure compliance with already.
To top that off, many new states are also proposing their respective privacy bills forward. So far, we’ve got seven new states with comprehensive state laws in the works, along with an amendment to Virginia’s CDPA. However, privacy bills are much easier to come by than privacy laws. We’ve seen multiple bills introduced to the house and senate floors over the past couple years, only to be stopped in their tracks, with American Data Privacy Protection Act (ADPPA) being the most recent example at the federal level. Let’s look at the legislation proposed in 2023.
