Texas Implements New Laws on Data Privacy, Insurance, and Second Amendment Rights.

Texas is set to have the most consumer-friendly data privacy law in the US, giving consumers the right to know when data is being collected, access the data collected, and opt-out of the sale of personal data, targeted advertising, and data profiling. The law also allows consumers to correct any mistakes and delete their data. The law applies to every business in Texas, and companies that violate the law will face a penalty of $7,500 per issue. The law takes effect on June 1, 2024, and the opt-out, opt-in portion takes effect six months later.
