Bill overview
This bill establishes a Consumer Data Protection Act in West Virginia, aiming to control and regulate how personal data is collected, processed, and used within the state. It creates definitions, limits application to businesses that handle a significant amount of consumer data (100,000+ or derive over 50% of revenue from data sales), and outlines consumer rights such as access, correction, and deletion of their data. The bill also establishes a Consumer Privacy Fund to support enforcement and exempts certain entities like state and local governments, while addressing federal law considerations.
