New York S08483 prohibits online retailers from setting prices based on device hardware, software, or geolocation.
New York S08483 amends the general business law to prohibit online retailers from basing reference prices on the hardware, software, or geolocation of an online device. This means that retailers cannot set prices differently based on the type of device a consumer is using, whether it has certain software, or the consumer's location. The bill aims to prevent unfair pricing practices and ensure that consumers are not charged more based on these factors. Violations of this law can result in civil penalties.
