Colorado: Amended bill to address minors protection introduced to House
On April 23, 2024, Senate Bill 24-041 on Privacy Protections for Children's Online Data was introduced in the Colorado House of Representatives and assigned to the House Business Affairs and Labor Committee. The amended bill passed its third reading in the Colorado Senate on April 23, 2024.
The amended bill provides several updates including the requirement for controllers to complete a Data Protection Impact Assessment if a feature presents a heightened risk of harm to minors.
The amended bill also outlines that the obligations imposed on controllers or processors do not apply to:
information made available by a third party that the controller has reason to believe is considered to be protected speech under applicable law;
the processing of personal data by an individual in the course of household or personal activities;
controllers or processors implementing age verification, age-gating systems, or collecting the ages of consumers if controllers collect the information to determine the age of consumers, controllers are not liable for erroneous age estimation; and
any obligations on controllers or processors that will negatively affect the rights of any person to freedom of speech or freedom of the press as guaranteed in the US Constitution.
