On May 10, 2022, Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont signed SB 6 “An Act Concerning Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring” (known as the CT Privacy Act (CTPA)) into law, effective July 1, 2023. Like laws enacted in California, Colorado, Virginia and Utah, the CTPA will add new business obligations and consumer rights in 2023 that go far beyond what has been required by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which started the US trend toward a more European approach to data privacy. The laws differ materially not only from the CCPA forerunner, but also from the UK and Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
