Bill > A4811

This bill establishes a data broker registry in New Jersey. A "data broker" is defined as a business that collects and sells or licenses personal information of consumers with whom the business does not have a direct relationship. The bill requires data brokers to register with the Division of Consumer Affairs and provide information such as their name, physical and web addresses, opt-out methods, and details on any security breaches. Data brokers must pay a $100 registration fee, and those that fail to register face a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per year. The bill aims to provide transparency and enable consumers to have more control over their personal information.
