Can I disclose personal information for a business purpose without complying with CCPA in Nevada? What are the requirements?

According to the Nevada Revised Statutes, a “Nevada business” is defined as a proprietorship, corporation, partnership, company, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other enterprise that has a physical location and at least one full-time equivalent employee in Nevada and is registered to transact business in the state ^[1.2].

Regarding personal information disclosure, Nevada has its own privacy law, the Nevada Privacy of Information Collected on the Internet from Consumers Act (NPICICA), which requires businesses to provide consumers with notice of their data collection practices and to allow consumers to opt-out of the sale of their personal information ^[1.1]. However, NPICICA does not have the same requirements as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) ^[1.1].

It is important to note that the Nevada legislature has passed a law that requires governmental entities to keep confidential certain personal information regarding donors, members, or volunteers of a nonprofit organization, and prohibits them from requesting or releasing certain personal information regarding donors, members, or volunteers of a nonprofit organization ^[2].

Based on the available information, it is unclear whether there are any specific requirements for disclosing personal information for a business purpose in Nevada outside of NPICICA. It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional for further guidance.
