Can I ensure that my company is compliant with expanding privacy protections in Kentucky? What are the requirements?

Kentucky Privacy Protections

Kentucky has several privacy protection laws that companies must comply with. One of the most important is the Kentucky Address Confidentiality Program [30 KYAR 6:011][4.2]. This program allows victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other crimes to keep their addresses confidential. Companies must ensure that they do not disclose the addresses of program participants.

Another important law is the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act [KRS 367.110][1.1]. This law prohibits companies from engaging in unfair, false, misleading, or deceptive practices in their dealings with consumers. Companies must ensure that their privacy policies are accurate and not misleading.

Additionally, Kentucky has a breach notification law [KRS 365.732][1.1]. This law requires companies to notify individuals if their personal information has been compromised in a data breach. Companies must ensure that they have appropriate security measures in place to protect personal information.

Ensuring Compliance

To ensure compliance with Kentucky’s privacy protection laws, companies should:

  • Review and update their privacy policies to ensure accuracy and compliance with applicable laws.
  • Implement appropriate security measures to protect personal information.
  • Train employees on privacy policies and procedures.
  • Develop a breach response plan in case of a data breach.
  • Regularly review and update their compliance programs to ensure ongoing compliance with applicable laws.

Companies should also consult with legal counsel to ensure that they are fully compliant with all applicable privacy protection laws in Kentucky.
