New Hampshire HB1436 establishes protections for personal digital information and cloud-stored files.

New Hampshire HB1436, known as the "Common Law Privacy and Consumer Protection Act," aims to safeguard personal digital information and cloud-stored files. It recognizes individuals' retained rights in their information, even when shared with third-party platforms or cloud service providers. The act presumes that personal information in digital records, including those stored in the cloud, remains the property of its original owner. It also protects such information from unreasonable search or seizure by government entities, requiring a warrant issued upon probable cause.
