Connecticut's privacy law takes effect on July 1, with some
key changes after the governor signed Senate Bill 3 on June 26.
Some portions of the amendments concerning newly defined
"consumer health law" will have immediate effect while
others, including those concerning processing children's data,
have more lead time (effective October 1, 2024).
Will these changes apply to your company?
Yes, if your company conducts business in Connecticut, you
target your goods or services to residents of Connecticut, and you
collect or process (or direct others to collect or process on your
behalf) "consumer health data."
What is "consumer health data"?
Consumer health data means any personal data that a controller
uses to identify a Connecticut consumer's physical or mental
health condition or diagnosis, and includes, but is not limited to,
gender-affirming health data and reproductive or sexual health
data. It is considered "sensitive data" under
Connecticut's privacy
