Third-Party Analytics Tools on Websites in Louisiana

Louisiana state law does not have specific requirements for using third-party analytics tools on websites. However, website owners must comply with state and federal laws regarding data privacy and protection.

Under Louisiana law, businesses that collect personal information from Louisiana residents must comply with the Louisiana Database Security Breach Notification Law [2.1]. This law requires businesses to notify individuals if their personal information has been compromised in a data breach.

Additionally, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) applies to businesses that collect personal information from California residents, including website visitors. The CCPA requires businesses to disclose what personal information they collect, how it is used, and with whom it is shared. It also gives California residents the right to request that their personal information be deleted [2.3].

If your website collects personal information from Louisiana or California residents, you must comply with the relevant state laws. It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Regarding compliance, third-party examiners must comply with all applicable statutes and regulations as well as all terms of the contract executed by the third party tester or third party examiner and the department [1.2].

If you collect data to comply with any requirement of Louisiana law, you may not use that data for any other purpose except as required by law. You must also implement and maintain reasonable security procedures and practices to protect the data collected to comply with the requirements of Louisiana law from unauthorized use, disclosure, access, destruction, or modification [2.2].

There are no reporting requirements for using third-party analytics tools on websites in Louisiana [3.1].

In summary, while Louisiana state law does not have specific requirements for using third-party analytics tools on websites, website owners must comply with state and federal laws regarding data privacy and protection. If your website collects personal information from Louisiana or California residents, you must comply with the relevant state laws. You must also comply with the requirements for compliance and data security.
