The DATA Privacy Act, also known as Bill 118 s 3337, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to protect the privacy of individuals' personal data online.
The bill aims to achieve this by requiring companies that collect and store personal data to implement certain privacy measures. These measures include obtaining explicit consent from individuals before collecting their data, providing individuals with the ability to access and delete their data, and implementing security measures to protect the data from unauthorized access.
Additionally, the DATA Privacy Act would require companies to be transparent about their data collection practices and provide individuals with clear information about how their data is being used. Companies would also be required to notify individuals in the event of a data breach that compromises their personal information.
Overall, the DATA Privacy Act seeks to give individuals more control over their personal data and hold companies accountable for how they collect and use that data. This bill is seen as an important step towards protecting individuals' privacy in an increasingly digital world.
