Bill overview
This bill, titled the Guidelines for Use, Access, and Responsible Disclosure of Financial Data Act (GUARD Financial Data Act), aims to improve consumer privacy and data security within the financial industry. It modifies Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act by emphasizing data minimization, requiring financial institutions to limit the collection and disclosure of personal information to what’s necessary, and establishing stricter rules around consumer consent for sensitive data. The bill also introduces provisions regarding access credentials, disclosure policies, and consumer rights to access and request deletion of their financial information, while addressing regulatory considerations for small financial institutions and clarifying definitions related to data privacy.
