Del. Code Ann. tit. 6, section 12B-100 · Read the law's page
- Implement and maintain reasonable procedures and practices to prevent the unauthorized acquisition, use, modification, disclosure, or destruction of that personal information, collected or maintained in the regular course of business.
- This binds any person, including a government entity, that conducts business in Delaware and owns, licenses, or maintains personal information of a Delaware resident.
- There is no separate compliance runway to build against: the duty has been in force since , when 81 Del. Laws, c. 129, section 1 took effect 240 days after its approval.
- Expect enforcement only from the Delaware Attorney General, through the Director of Consumer Protection, seeking to address a violation and to recover direct economic damages; the chapter does not itself state whether a private plaintiff may also sue.
