Bill overview
This bill, the Massachusetts Consumer Data Privacy Act, aims to give Massachusetts residents more control over their personal data. It would require companies to be transparent about how they collect, use, and share consumer data, and to obtain consent before doing so. The law would also establish a private right of action, allowing consumers to sue companies for violations. This legislation is part of a series of data privacy bills being considered in the state legislature.
