In the continuing absence of Congressional action on a comprehensive U.S. federal privacy law, five states have now enacted their own laws. We previously provided a summary of the California, Virginia, and Colorado laws (available here), and Connecticut and Utah have since enacted new privacy laws. The Connecticut Act Concerning Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring (CTDPA) was signed into law on May 10, 2022 and is scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2023. The Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA) was signed into law on March 24, 2022 and is scheduled to take effect on December 31, 2023. The CTDPA and UCPA are similar to the recently enacted Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) and Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) in many respects, but there are some key differences among these laws and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which took effect in 2020 and was amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). To help businesses plan for compliance, Keller and Heckman LLP has created a side-by-side comparison of some of the key provisions of each law, along with an overview of some recently introduced federal privacy bills. Click here to read the full article.
