Maine Privacy Act

The Maine Privacy Act (LD 946) requires internet service providers to obtain opt-in consent before using, sharing, or selling customer personal data. It applies to ISPs serving customers in Maine and sets one of the strictest privacy standards in the U.S. by requiring explicit permission before data use.
