Introduced Text

Child Data Privacy and Protection Act regulates data collection, processing, and sale of child users' personal data by online entities in South.

The Child Data Privacy and Protection Act mandates that entities offering online products targeted towards children in South Carolina complete data protection impact assessments. These assessments evaluate risks to child users, including potential harm from noncompliance. The Act prohibits the collection, retention, processing, or sale of personal data of child users unless necessary for the product's operation or with parental consent. It requires entities to utilize privacy by default, prominently display privacy policies, and expedite legal processes for child victims of crimes.
