Colorado Becomes the Third US State to Enact Comprehensive Privacy Legislation
Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) into law on July 7, 2021, making it the third comprehensive state privacy law enacted in the United States. California led with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which was recently amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, and the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) followed this March. Colorado adds to these laws by bringing privacy legislation to the middle of the country.
