North Carolina Consumer Privacy Act establishes consumer rights and data protection standards.

The North Carolina Consumer Privacy Act establishes rights for consumers to access, delete, and port their personal data, and to opt out of targeted advertising and data sales. It mandates that controllers and processors implement data security practices and obtain parental consent for children under 13. The Act also outlines enforcement mechanisms, including the creation of a Consumer Privacy Account to fund enforcement actions. It exempts certain entities and data types from its provisions and sets a threshold for applicability based on revenue and data processing volume.
