Over the past several years, the number of states with comprehensive consumer data privacy laws has increased exponentially from just a handful—California, Colorado, Virginia, Connecticut, and Utah—to up to twenty by some counts.
Many of these state laws will go into effect starting Q4 of 2024 through 2025. We have previously written in more detail on New Jersey’s comprehensive data privacy law, which goes into effect January 15, 2025, and Tennessee’s comprehensive data privacy law, which goes into effect July 1, 2025. Some laws have already gone into effect, like Texas’s Data Privacy and Security Act, and Oregon’s Consumer Privacy Act, both of which became effective July of 2024.
Now is a good time to take stock of the current landscape as the next batch of state privacy laws go into effect.
Over the next year, the following laws will become effective:
- Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act (effective Oct. 1, 2024)
- Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act (effective Jan. 1, 2025)
- Iowa Consumer Data Protection Act (effective Jan. 1, 2025)
- Nebraska Data Privacy Act (effective Jan. 1, 2025)
