Can I use third-party analytics tools on my website in Colorado? What are the requirements?

Third-Party Analytics Tools on Websites in Colorado

Yes, you can use third-party analytics tools on your website in Colorado, but you must comply with the state’s data privacy laws. Colorado has enacted the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), which went into effect on July 7, 2023. The CPA requires businesses to provide consumers with certain rights regarding their personal data, including the right to access, correct, delete, and opt-out of the sale of their personal data.

To comply with the CPA, businesses must provide clear and conspicuous notice to consumers about the collection, use, and sharing of their personal data. Businesses must also obtain consumers’ consent before collecting, using, or sharing their personal data. Additionally, businesses must implement reasonable security measures to protect consumers’ personal data.

Third-party analytics tools may collect personal data from website visitors, such as IP addresses, device information, and browsing history. Therefore, businesses must ensure that they provide notice to consumers about the use of these tools and obtain their consent before collecting their personal data.
