John Joyce (R-PA) introduced HR 8413\u2014which, of course, has a delightful backronym: The Securing and Establishing Consumer Uniform Rights and Enforcement over Data Act, or SECURE Data Act.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It\u2019s the first major federal consumer privacy bill released in years, the product of over 14 months of stakeholder engagement by the House Energy and Commerce Data Privacy Working Group, chaired by Rep. Brett Guthrie (R-KY). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>For privacy professionals, this bill deserves close attention\u2014even if its final form, assuming it ever reaches enactment, may look quite different from what was introduced. But if you were in the privacy space when APRA and ADPPA were making the rounds, you\u2019re no doubt tired of hearing that. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>So, here\u2019s the TL;DR for the SECURE Data Act: With an explicit preemption for state privacy laws, it sports the same Achille\u2019s heel as APRA and ADPPA. Will this time be different?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span>What the SECURE Data Act Does<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span>At its core, the SECURE Data Act establishes a <\/span> national framework for consumer privacy rights<span>, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>The right to access their personal data<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>The right to correct their data<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>The right to request their data\u2019s deletion<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>The right to receive their data in a portable format<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>The right to opt out of targeted advertising, data sales, and profiling used for legally significant decisions (albeit only for fully automated profiling with no human involvement)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>This is essentially the basic privacy rights package you see across US privacy laws.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Additionally, the bill adopts distinct obligations for controllers and processors, requires opt-in consent for sensitive data, and creates a data broker registration requirement with the FTC. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Enforcement would be split between the FTC and state attorneys general\u2014but critically, there is no private right of action,&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jdsupra.com\/legalnews\/the-secure-data-act-a-federal-privacy-6627507\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The SECURE Data Act: A Federal Privacy Framework (But for Real This Time?) | Osano&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":235184,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/jdsupra-static.s3.amazonaws.com\/profile-images\/og.16235_0650.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-235183","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-privacy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235183"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=235183"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":235185,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235183\/revisions\/235185"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=235183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=235183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=235183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
