As new laws are passed around the world and in a growing number U. S. States, it is becoming increasingly critical that every website have clear policies that outline privacy concerns and usage by outside visitors. As business owners, we need to protect our digital assets and your website is one of, if not the, most important digital asset associated with your business.
Several privacy laws already exist in the world and more are on the way. It is imperative that you protect yourself and your business by taking action as soon as possible. As of this writing, we are aware of the following privacy laws:
- General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
- California Online Privacy Protection Act of 2003
- California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018
- Nevada SB 220, which amends the NRS 603A.340
There are several more on the way:
- Hawaii – Senate Bill 418
- Illinois – House Bill 3358
- Massachusetts – Bill S.120
- Minnesota – HF2817/SF2912
- New Jersey – S2834
- New York – SB s5642
- Pennsylvania – HB1049
- Rhode Island – H5930
- Washington – Senate Bill 5376
Furthermore, there will likely be many more on the horizon, especially as more States pass their own laws and the trend catches on.
