Discarding and disposing of records containing personal identifying informationsince 4 lines
A.R.S. sec. 44-7601 · Read the law's page
- This binds any 'entity': a corporation, foreign corporation, unincorporated association, sole proprietorship, partnership, trust, estate, joint venture, limited liability company, or a government, governmental subdivision or agency, that discards or disposes of a paper record or document containing an individual's first and last name, or first initial and last name, combined with a Social Security number, a credit, charge or debit card number, a retirement account number, a savings, checking or securities entitlement account number, or a driver license or nonoperating identification license number.
- Redact that personal identifying information, or destroy the paper record or document, before discarding or disposing of it. This duty reaches paper records and documents only; it states no separate duty over electronic data.
- An entity subject to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, a HIPAA covered entity or business associate, or an entity subject to the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act is exempt. An entity that maintains and complies with its own disposal procedures, consistent with this duty, is deemed compliant.
- A county attorney or the Attorney General may enforce this section, and a civil penalty applies per violation arising out of one incident: up to $500 for a first violation, $1,000 for a second violation, and $5,000 for a third or subsequent violation. The statute states no private right of action of its own.

A.R.S. § 16-1023 · Read the law's page
- If you publish synthetic media depicting a real, identifiable person that was generated or manipulated using deep generative AI methods to convincingly replace or simulate that person's likeness or voice, reasonably convey to your audience that it is a digital impersonation, or that its authenticity is disputed, unless a reasonable person would already find that obvious.
- An interactive computer service is not liable under this section merely for publishing content created by another information content provider.
- Content that is commentary, parody, satire, criticism, or artistic expression, or that was created by or with the consent of the person depicted, falls outside this section's definition of digital impersonation.
Deepfakes; candidate disclosure requirement and civil penaltysince 3 lines
A.R.S. § 16-1024 · Read the law's page
- If you are a creator, meaning you use artificial intelligence or other digital technology to generate synthetic media, other than merely providing the underlying technology, do not create and distribute a deceptive and fraudulent deepfake of a candidate within ninety days before an election at which that candidate appears on the ballot, unless the media carries a clear and conspicuous disclosure that it includes content generated by artificial intelligence.
- Satire, parody, and an interactive computer service as defined in 47 U.S.C. § 230 are exempt from this disclosure duty.
- Failing to make the required disclosure exposes you to the civil penalty in A.R.S. § 16-937(B) for each day you distribute the undisclosed deepfake.
