AI Summary

This bill introduces the Anti-Click Gambling Data Analytics Collection Act, which aims to restrict data collection practices in online gambling. Specifically, the bill defines "remote gambling" as any form of gambling conducted through electronic communication methods like the internet, telephone, or other digital technologies. The key provision prohibits gambling platform operators and their subsidiaries from collecting participant data with the purpose of predicting an individual's future gambling behavior in specific betting scenarios. By preventing this type of predictive data analytics, the bill seeks to protect gambling participants from potentially manipulative practices that could exploit personal information to influence gambling decisions. The legislation is designed to be implemented immediately and applies to any entity operating online or remote gambling platforms within the state of Illinois.
