AI Summary

This bill establishes new regulations concerning "identification devices," defined as items or applications capable of transmitting personal information using electronic means to track, harass, or download data without permission, and prohibits their "introduction" (subcutaneous injection, inhalation, ingestion, or other placement on or within the body) without consent, or by coercion, intimidation, or by conditioning benefits like employment on consent, while exempting legitimate medical uses with patient consent. It also creates a seven-year statute of limitations for civil actions related to violations of these provisions and amends existing law on the unlawful use of tracking devices to include placing or using them on a person or their property without consent, while specifically exempting parents or guardians from this prohibition when tracking their minor children on vehicles they own or lease, or on the minor's person or property.
