Maine Online Data Privacy Act regulates data collection, use, and sale by businesses targeting Maine residents.

The Maine Online Data Privacy Act governs how businesses collect, use, process, disclose, sell, and delete personal data of Maine residents. It defines "personal data" as information linked to an individual, excluding de-identified data and publicly available information. The Act mandates controllers to limit data collection to what is necessary for requested services, conduct data protection assessments for activities posing high consumer risk, and establish secure methods for consumers to exercise their rights.
