Summary of Bill S 1287
Bill 119 s 1287, also known as the "Data Broker Accountability and Transparency Act," aims to create a centralized system that enables individuals to request the deletion of their personal information from all data brokers simultaneously. Data brokers are companies that collect and sell personal information about individuals, often without their knowledge or consent.
The bill seeks to address concerns about the lack of control individuals have over their personal data and the potential for misuse by data brokers. By establishing a centralized system for requesting the deletion of personal information, the bill aims to give individuals more control over their data and protect their privacy.
In addition to establishing the deletion system, the bill also includes provisions for transparency and accountability measures for data brokers. This includes requirements for data brokers to disclose their data collection practices, provide individuals with access to their personal information, and obtain consent before collecting or selling personal information. Overall, Bill 119 s 1287 aims to empower individuals to take control of their personal data and hold data brokers accountable for their practices. It seeks to strike a balance between protecting individual privacy rights and allowing for legitimate data collection and use.
