Your Guide to Navigating the Connecticut Data Privacy Act
The Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA) is a vital regulatory framework designed to protect the personal data of Connecticut residents. Effective July 1, 2023, the CTDPA provides consumers extensive rights over their personal data and imposes strict obligations on businesses to ensure data is handled responsibly. Key points include the rights to access, correct, delete, and obtain copies of personal data and to opt out of data processing for targeted advertising or the sale of personal information.
Who is Affected by the CTDPA?
The CTDPA applies to businesses that:
- Conduct business in Connecticut or target Connecticut residents.
- Control or process the data of at least 100,000 consumers annually.
- Derive over 50% of revenue from selling data of at least 25,000 consumers.
This includes businesses of all sizes, whether based in Connecticut or targeting its residents through their products or services.
