What it requires

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text. Also read by: Oregon Department of Justice, Consumer Protection (guidance, recorded ).

In the frameworks

NIST Privacy Framework
  • GV.MT-P7Policies, processes, and procedures for receiving, tracking, and responding to complaints, concerns, and questions from individuals about organizational privacy practices are established and in place.
  • CT.PO-P1Policies, processes, and procedures for authorizing data processing (e.g., organizational decisions, individual consent), revoking authorizations, and maintaining authorizations are established and in place.
  • CT.PO-P3Policies, processes, and procedures for enabling individuals’ data processing preferences and requests are established and in place.

Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework, and in the NIST Privacy Framework, line by line beside each duty above. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law

Open questions
Must a controller give a consumer the list of specific third parties that received the consumer's personal data or any personal data, which the Department's FAQs describe as a consumer right, when ORS 646A.574(1)(a)(B) provides that list at the controller's option?

What it makes you log

What the log must hold

Decision basis

Logging duty

A controller may deny an opt-out request as fraudulent only on a good-faith, reasonable and documented belief, which cannot be shown without a record of the grounds. Other record-like text in the cited sections is not a duty to keep a log: a controller that obtains data from another source may satisfy a deletion request either by deleting the data and retaining a record of the request or by opting the consumer out, which is one of two routes (ORS 646A.576(7)); the decision on an appeal is a written notice to the consumer (ORS 646A.576(6)(d)); and the right to a copy of the consumer's own personal data (ORS 646A.574(1)(a)(C)) is access to the data, not to a log. The data protection assessment record (ORS 646A.586) sits in a section this row does not cite. The reach comes from the definition of consumer in ORS 646A.570(7), the term these sections use.
