Con legislación sobre privacidad sweeping the nation, Florida is right on the heels of states like Montana and Texas — as the latest to enact a comprehensive data privacy law.
The Florida Digital Bill of Rights (FDBR), was signed into law on June 6, 2023 and goes into effect July 1, 2024. Get up to speed on all the updated parameters and see what you can do to prepare ahead of time.
What is the Florida Digital Bill of Rights?

- Right to correct inaccuracies in the consumer’s personal data, taking into account the nature of the personal data and the purposes of the processing of the consumer’s personal data.
- Right to delete any and all personal data provided by or obtained about the consumer.
- Right to obtain a copy of the consumer’s personal data in a portable and, to the extent technically practicable, readily usable format if the data is available in a digital format.
- Right to opt out of the processing of the consumer’s personal data for purposes of: (a) targeted advertising; (b) the sale of personal data; or (c) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning the consumer.
- Right to opt out of the collection of sensitive data, including precise geolocation data, or the processing of sensitive data.
- Right to opt out of the collection of personal data collected through the operation of a voice recognition or facial recognition feature.
