Chamber Passed·9/25/25
Introduced Text

Establishes the Massachusetts Data Privacy Act, regulating data collection and processing by controllers and processors.

The Massachusetts Data Privacy Act regulates the collection, processing, and transfer of personal data by controllers and processors. It mandates that controllers limit data collection to what is necessary for specific services and obtain affirmative consent for processing sensitive data. Controllers must provide consumers with a privacy notice detailing data collection and processing practices, including data security measures and third-party disclosures. Consumers have rights to access, correct, and delete their personal data, and to opt out of targeted advertising and data sales.
