Keypoint: This week the Colorado legislature passed the Colorado Privacy Act.
Below is our sixteenth weekly update on the status of proposed CCPA-like privacy legislation. Before we get to our update, we need to make a few announcements.
This will be our last weekly update – for now. With the legislatures in so many states having adjourned for the year and the bills in the remaining states not moving forward, we will be pausing our weekly updates. Rest assured, we will be back when things heat up again.
Even though we are pausing our weekly updates, we are not slowing down our work on state consumer privacy legislation.
On June 15, we will be hosting a webinar on the Colorado Privacy Act. Click here to register.
Starting Monday, June 21, we will be releasing a limited podcast series with interviews of state lawmakers who spearheaded privacy legislation in 2021. If you want to know the inside story on how these bills are drafted and lobbied, you will not want to miss these interviews.
Finally, if you are not already subscribed to our blog, consider doing so to stay updated.Continue Reading Status of Proposed CCPA-Like State Privacy Legislation as of June 14, 2021
