Can I skip updating my privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents in Illinois? What are the requirements?

Illinois has its own data privacy law called the Illinois Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) [1.1]. PIPA requires businesses to implement and maintain reasonable security measures to protect personal information and to notify affected individuals in the event of a data breach [1.1]. However, PIPA does not have specific requirements for updating privacy policies or CCPA-related documents.

On the other hand, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) applies to businesses that collect personal information of California residents and meet certain criteria [2.1]. If your business falls under the scope of CCPA, you must comply with its requirements, including updating your privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents [2.1].

Therefore, whether or not you need to update your privacy policy and CCPA-related documents in Illinois depends on whether your business is subject to CCPA. If your business collects personal information of California residents and meets the CCPA criteria, you must comply with CCPA’s requirements, including updating your privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents. If not, there are no specific requirements under PIPA for updating privacy policies or CCPA-related documents.
