Can I use third-party email marketing tools that collect personal information in Nebraska? What are the requirements?

Using Third-Party Email Marketing Tools in Nebraska

Nebraska does not have any specific requirements that prohibit the use of third-party email marketing tools that collect personal information. However, any use of personal information must comply with the Uniform Motor Vehicle Records Disclosure Act [NEAC 250-2-06] and the Digital Signatures Act [NEAC 437-3-01].

If you plan to collect personal information through email marketing tools, you must ensure that the information collected is used only for authorized purposes and that the individuals have given their consent to receive such communications. Additionally, any communication postmarked by an electronic postmark provided by the United States Postal Service may be used to verify that a record of a state agency is true and correct [NERS 86-644].

Furthermore, communications providers providing service in Nebraska are required to file a registration form with and pay a registration fee to the Public Service Commission [NERS 86-125]. However, this requirement does not apply to email marketing tools that collect personal information unless they are also providing telecommunications services.

It is recommended that you review the relevant laws and regulations to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements.

However, any use of personal information must comply with the Uniform Motor Vehicle Records Disclosure Act and the Digital Signatures Act. Additionally, communications providers providing service in Nebraska are required to register with the Public Service Commission, but this requirement does not apply to email marketing tools that collect personal information unless they are also providing telecommunications services.
