Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to deletion of a consumer's financial information after cancellation of an automatic renewal or continuous service

AI Summary

This bill requires businesses that offer automatic renewal or continuous services to delete a consumer's financial information, which is defined as any information related to a consumer's credit card, debit card, or third-party account used for charging, once that service is canceled, unless the consumer explicitly agrees to let the business keep it for future purchases. If the business does not get this consent, it must delete the financial information within fourteen days of the cancellation request and then notify the consumer by mail or email within seven days of the deletion, specifying the date of deletion and the specific payment methods affected. This requirement does not apply if state or federal law mandates the business to retain the financial information.
