Florida officials join those in a number of other states in proposing consumer privacy bills to regulate the sale and sharing of personal data. House Bill 969 borrows language from the California Consumer Privacy Act, which passed in 2018, and its successor, the California Privacy Rights Act. ....

Like privacy legislation in California, it has a limited private right of action for consumers to sue in the event of some data breaches stemming from poor security practices.
