Connecticut Amends Data Breach Notification and Data Protection Laws | Practical Law
Connecticut has amended several laws protecting personal information, including its data breach notification law to expand the personal information definition and clarify when covered entities can provide substitute notice, and its data security law to clarify that it does not create a private right of action even though violations are unfair trade practices. It also amended the Connecticut Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring Act (CTDPA) to clarify when data controllers must obtain consent from minors.
