Bill > SB2015

This bill, known as the "Mississippi Consumer Data Privacy Act," establishes new rights for consumers regarding their personal information and outlines obligations for businesses that collect and process this data. It grants consumers the right to know what personal information businesses collect about them, the purpose of its collection, and with whom it is shared. Consumers can also request access to their personal information and ask for its deletion. Furthermore, individuals have the right to instruct businesses not to sell their personal information, with specific provisions for minors under 16. Businesses that meet certain revenue or data processing thresholds are subject to these regulations, and they must provide clear notice of these rights and mechanisms for consumers to exercise them, such as a toll-free number and a website link titled "Do Not Sell My Personal Information." The act also allows consumers to bring civil lawsuits against businesses that violate these provisions, and the Attorney General is empowered to enforce the law and adopt further regulations. Importantly, this act supersedes all local laws concerning the collection and sale of consumer data.
