What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Notice of a breach of security must be made without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 days after determination of the breach, except in specified situations. If the number of affected Delaware residents exceeds 500, the person required to provide notice must also notify the Attorney General by the time notice is provided to residents. This provision is in force under the current codified text; no dated original commencement is established, so no effective date is recorded here.
