State consumer privacy laws are being enacted at an accelerating pace. As of 2026, 20 states have passed comprehensive privacy legislation, with more working through their legislatures. Laws vary significantly in scope — some cover all businesses collecting consumer data, others set employee thresholds or revenue minimums. Rights granted to consumers also differ: opt-out of data sale, right to access, correction, and deletion are common, but not universal. This tracker pulls from official state legislative and regulatory sources to give you a current view of where every state stands.
