Third-Party Analytics Tools on Websites in New Mexico
If you are planning to use third-party analytics tools on your website in New Mexico, there are certain requirements you need to consider.
According to [2], the Compliance Bureau of Taxation and Revenue New Mexico uses statistical analysis software to design datasets. However, it is unclear whether this applies to third-party analytics tools used by private entities.
In general, websites that collect personal information from New Mexico residents are required to comply with the state’s data breach notification law and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Additionally, websites must have a privacy policy that discloses the types of information collected, how it is used, and whether it is shared with third parties.
[3] states that the Health Insurance Marketplace assesses new third-party tools or websites before using them. This suggests that it is important to evaluate the privacy and security practices of any third-party analytics tools before using them on your website.
It is also worth noting that [4] includes a disclaimer for third-party links, stating that the Texas General Land Office (GLO) does not assume responsibility or liability for any third-party contributors to their web application or any website that links to or from their web application. This highlights the importance of carefully vetting any third-party tools or services used on your website.
In summary, while there are no specific requirements for using third-party analytics tools on websites in New Mexico, it is important to comply with applicable privacy laws and have a clear privacy policy. Additionally, it is recommended to carefully evaluate the privacy and security practices of any third-party tools or services used on your website.
