Florida Digital Bill of Rights (FDBR)
Florida's consumer privacy law (Fla. Stat. 501.701 to 501.722, in force 1 July 2024), whose full controller duties reach only companies with over 1 billion dollars in global revenue that earn half of it from online advertising, run a voice-assistant smart speaker service or run an app store with 250,000 apps; the ban on selling sensitive data without consent reaches smaller for-profit businesses too. It gives consumers rights to access, correct, delete, port and opt out of targeted advertising, sale, significant profiling, sensitive data and voice or facial recognition collection, bars device surveillance, requires consent for sensitive data, privacy notices with fixed sale warnings, processor contracts, data protection assessments, a retention schedule with a two-year inactivity limit and search ranking disclosures, and adds the Department of Legal Affairs security and authentication rules (NIST-based) and the s. 501.1735 duties for online platforms used mainly by children. Enforced by the Attorney General at up to 50,000 dollars per violation, tripled for children. Built from the statute and rule texts.
