Bill overview
This bill, the Telling Everyone the Location of data Leaving the U.S. Act (TELL Act), aims to protect user privacy by requiring online sellers and app developers to clearly inform users when their data is stored in China. Specifically, it mandates that apps and websites disclose whether user information is held in China and whether the Chinese Communist Party or a Chinese state-owned entity has access to it. The goal is to increase transparency regarding the location and potential access to user data collected through these platforms.
