Identity Theft Protection Act, destruction of data no longer neededsince 1 line
MCL 445.72a (Sec. 12a of Act 452 of 2004, added by 2006 PA 566) · Read the law's page
- Destroy, or arrange for the destruction of, any data containing personal information about an individual once that data is removed from the database and is not being retained elsewhere for a purpose state or federal law does not prohibit; retaining the data for an investigation, audit, or internal review does not violate this duty. Destroy the data by shredding, erasing, or otherwise modifying it so it cannot be read, deciphered, or reconstructed through generally available means.
- This binds a person (a private business or other legal entity) or an agency (a Michigan state government department, board, commission, office, authority, or unit, including a public university, but not a court) that maintains a database including personal information about multiple Michigan residents.
- You are considered compliant here if you are already subject to, and in compliance with, a federal law governing the disposal of records containing personal identifying information.
- A knowing violation is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $250 for each violation; this section creates no private right of action, though it preserves whatever other civil remedy state or federal law might otherwise provide.

- Do not intentionally create or disseminate a deep fake realistically depicting the intimate parts of, or a sexual act involving, an identifiable individual if you know or should know it would cause that person physical, emotional, reputational, or economic harm.
- Do not rely on the depicted individual's consent to the deep fake's creation or transmission unless it is contained in a plain-language agreement, signed knowingly and voluntarily, that describes the depiction and, if applicable, the work it will be incorporated into.
- As a provider of interactive computer service, telecommunications, or the underlying technology, you are not liable for another person's deep fake merely for providing transmission infrastructure or access, or for developing technology not designed, marketed, or deployed for nonconsensual deep fakes, so long as you prohibit that use in your terms of service.

- As passed by the Senate, a person (any private entity) or agency (a Michigan state government unit) that owns, possesses, collects, or accesses personal information must implement and maintain reasonable security procedures: designate a security coordinator, identify internal and external risks, include appropriate safeguards addressing those risks, assess the safeguards' effectiveness, contractually require every service provider to maintain safeguards conforming to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 or another industry-standard framework, and evaluate and adjust the procedures for changed circumstances.

Conforming to the current NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, or already being regulated by Michigan or the federal government and reasonably conforming to HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Title V, the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014, or HITECH, is deemed compliance.
