Go #Massachusetts!On Thursday, September 25, the Massachusetts Senate unanimously (40-0) passed a comprehensive data privacy bill known as the Massachusetts Data Privacy Act. It had complete bipartisan support.The bill is considered one of the strongest in the nation.* Data Minimization: Limits the amount of personal data that companies can collect to only what is reasonably necessary to provide a product or service.* Protection for Minors: Includes enhanced protections for children's data, prohibiting the sale of their personal information and its use for targeted advertising.* Prohibition on Sensitive Data Sales: Bans the sale of sensitive data, such as location data, health information, and biometric data.* Consumer Rights: It gives residents the right to access, correct, delete, and opt out of having their data sold or used for targeted advertising.The bill now moves to the Massachusetts House of Representatives for further consideration.#Privacy #OnelineRights
