Can I skip updating my privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents in Maryland? What are the requirements?
Requirements for CCPA-related documents in Maryland
Maryland does not have a state-level privacy law similar to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). However, if your business collects personal information from Maryland residents, you may still be subject to CCPA requirements.
Under CCPA, businesses that meet certain criteria must provide specific disclosures to California residents about the collection, use, and sharing of their personal information. If your business meets these criteria, you must update your privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents accordingly.
It is important to note that CCPA applies to businesses that meet certain criteria, regardless of where the business is located. Therefore, if your business meets the criteria and collects personal information from Maryland residents, you must comply with CCPA requirements.
Conclusion
If your business collects personal information from Maryland residents and meets CCPA criteria, you must comply with CCPA requirements by updating your privacy policy and other CCPA-related documents. If you are unsure whether your business meets CCPA criteria, you should consult with a legal professional.
