AI law1 instrument, 1 in force

Research summary (314 words)

Wyoming has not enacted a general-purpose AI-transparency, risk-management, or output-labeling statute; its only enacted AI-specific law is criminal.

House Bill 102 of the 2026 Budget Session, Enrolled Act No. 32, effective , created a new Article 7 (Artificial Intelligence Offenses) and companion sections banning nonconsensual AI-generated or digitally altered synthetic sexual material depicting any identifiable person, banning the development or distribution of an AI system built to create or promote child pornography or synthetic sexual material, banning the development or distribution of an AI system built to promote self-harm, and adding AI-generated child pornography as its own basis for the existing sexual-exploitation-of-a-child offense.

A companion section states that using an AI system to commit a crime is not a defense to the crime, and a separate new section gives an AI system's developer civil immunity from harm caused by another person's illegal use of the system unless the developer built it knowing or intending its primary purpose to be illegal.

The enacting act's own title recites an additional purpose to address AI-enabled censorship of political speech and to provide causes of action, but no operative section on either point appears anywhere in the enrolled text.

A separate 2026 bill, House Bill 91, would have barred Wyoming government entities (not private industry) from using AI for social scoring or for identifying persons through biometric data or bulk image gathering; it had not received final passage when the 2026 Budget Session adjourned sine die on , and would have bound only government use of AI in any event.

Wyoming's general Consumer Protection Act, Wyo. Stat. Ann. §§ 40-12-101 to 40-12-116, prohibits unfair or deceptive trade practices and would be available in principle, though untested, against a deceptive chatbot or AI-generated content used to defraud a consumer. No provision of Title 22 (Elections) requires disclosure of AI-generated or synthetic content in political communications.

In force since . Binds public and private bodies.

What this law does

Section 6-4-307 makes it a felony to knowingly distribute, transmit, or otherwise make available synthetic sexual material, defined as material created, altered, or manipulated through an AI system or another digital method to realistically depict the intimate parts of a specific person, that realistically depicts an identifiable person without that person's knowledge or consent under circumstances of a reasonable expectation of privacy, where the distribution causes or is intended to cause harm; the same section reaches promoting such material online and threatening to distribute it for a benefit.

Section 6-4-308 separately criminalizes knowingly developing or distributing an artificial intelligence system specifically designed to create, distribute, or promote child pornography or synthetic sexual material, where the developer intends or knows the system will be used for that purpose; a parallel new section 6-1-206 states that Wyoming's criminal code is not limited from applying to conduct facilitated by an AI system and that using an AI system to commit a crime is not a defense.

Section 6-4-303(b)(v) and (vi) add using an AI system to generate or create child pornography, or possessing child pornography known to have been generated by an AI system, as their own bases for the existing sexual-exploitation-of-a-child offense.

Article 7, section 6-4-701, criminalizes knowingly developing or distributing an artificial intelligence system specifically designed to promote self-harm, again gated on the developer's intent or knowledge that the system will be used for that purpose; each of these three system-level offenses exempts a system that produces the prohibited content solely from user prompts without the developer's intent to encourage it, and exempts interactive computer services, information services, and telecommunications services as defined by 47 U.S.C. §§ 230 and 153 for content provided by another person.

A new section 1-1-143 gives an AI system's developer civil immunity from damages arising from another person's illegal or harmful use of the system, unless the developer built the system knowing or intending that its primary purpose would be illegal or illicit activity.

What it requires

Privacy law2 instruments, 2 in force

Research summary (195 words)

Wyoming has never had a comprehensive controller or processor personal-data bill reach a floor vote in either chamber, and none is pending. Wyoming's only enacted personal-data statute of general application is its breach-notification statute, Wyo. Stat. Ann. secs. 40-12-501 to 40-12-511, which reaches biometric, medical, and health-insurance data only by cross-reference to the criminal identity-theft statute's definition of personal identifying information, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 6-3-901(b).

Biometric data reaches the notification duty only when used for authentication purposes, with no exclusion anywhere for an identifier derived from a photograph, video, or audio recording.

Wyoming is the one state in this batch where an indirect private right of action was never opened at all, rather than opened and then foreclosed: the breach statute contains no deeming clause characterizing a notice violation as a violation of Wyoming's general Consumer Protection Act, so that Act's own real private right of action, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 40-12-108, which arms a person injured by an uncured unlawful deceptive trade practice, is simply never incorporated into the breach statute in the first place.

This is a different finding from the express or exclusivity-based foreclosures found elsewhere, and is recorded as such.

In force. Binds private bodies.

What this law does

An individual or commercial entity that conducts business in Wyoming and owns or licenses computerized data including personal identifying information about a Wyoming resident must, on becoming aware of a breach of the security of the system, conduct a reasonable and prompt investigation, and if misuse has occurred or is reasonably likely, give notice as soon as possible to each affected resident; timing is a risk-of-harm-triggered standard, not a fixed day count.

Personal identifying information means a name combined with one or more data elements defined by cross-reference to Wyoming's criminal identity-theft statute, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 6-3-901(b), which includes unique biometric data generated from measurements or analysis of human body characteristics for authentication purposes, medical information, and health insurance information, alongside the standard Social Security, driver's license, and financial account elements; none of these carries an exclusion for data derived from a photograph, video, or audio recording.

Personal identifying information excludes information contained in government records or widely distributed media lawfully made available to the general public, regardless of its source. Substitute notice is available when the cost of direct notice would exceed $10,000 for a Wyoming-based entity or $250,000 for an out-of-state entity, or when the affected class exceeds 10,000 Wyoming-based persons or 500,000 out-of-state persons. The provisions this entry describes came into force on different days.

In force since . Binds private bodies.

What this law does

The Attorney General may bring an action in law or equity to address a violation of Wyoming's breach-notification statute and to recover damages; the provision is not exclusive and does not relieve a covered person from any other applicable law.

Unlike Pennsylvania's, South Dakota's, or West Virginia's equivalents, this statute contains no deeming clause characterizing a notice violation as a violation of Wyoming's general Consumer Protection Act, Wyo. Stat. Ann. secs. 40-12-101 to 40-12-116, so the indirect private-action route those states open is not opened at all here, rather than opened and then foreclosed.

The Consumer Protection Act does carry its own real private right of action, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 40-12-108, arming a person relying on an uncured unlawful deceptive trade practice with an action for actual damages, but that right runs only to a violation under the Consumer Protection Act itself, and nothing in the breach statute invokes it.

No private right of action attaches to this instrument on that basis: an incorporating clause is absent, rather than an explicit foreclosure clause being present. Senate File 53 of the 2007 General Session created this subsection. That act is effective .

What it requires

Scraping law1 instrument, 1 in force

Research summary (168 words)

Wyoming's computer-crime statute sets a bare without-authorization test for unauthorized access, narrower in scope than California's without-permission standard is broad but with no malicious-intent or deceptive-means gate of the kind Virginia's statute carries, so an unauthenticated, non-deceptive automated access to a public page can fit its elements on a plain reading; no Wyoming court has construed the statute in a scraping context.

Wyoming has no comprehensive personal-data statute; its only enacted personal-data law is the breach-notification statute already covered in the privacy topic document, which excludes information in government records or lawfully available through widely distributed media from its notice duty regardless of source. Terms-of-service enforceability rests on ordinary Wyoming contract law, with no reported Wyoming decision on browsewrap versus clickwrap in a scraping dispute.

Copyright, text-and-data-mining, and database rights are federal only; Wyoming adds nothing beyond the national document. No Wyoming statute assigns robots.txt independent legal weight, and Wyoming's common-law unfair-competition and misappropriation doctrine, available in principle, has not been reported applied to a scraping fact pattern.

Computer misuse

Crimes against computer users (bare without-authorization test)

Wyo. Stat. Ann. § 6-3-504official text, Wyoming Statutes Title 6, Wyoming Legislature (wyoleg.gov compressed statutes)

In force since . Binds public and private bodies.

What this law does

Section 6-3-504(a) makes it a crime against computer users for any person, knowingly and without authorization, to access a computer, computer system, or computer network, or to deny computer system services to an authorized user of services owned by, under contract to, or operated for another.

The subsection carries no malicious-intent or intentionally-deceptive-means element in addition to lack of authorization, so an ordinary, non-deceptive automated access to a public, unauthenticated page can fit its bare elements on a plain reading, regardless of whether it disrupts anything.

Two sibling provisions in the same article require more than bare access: section 6-3-502 (crimes against intellectual property) reaches only data with a value of more than $750.00 that is a trade secret or otherwise confidential, and section 6-3-506 (computer trespass) requires intent to damage or cause a malfunction through malware or similar means; ordinary scraping of a public page fits neither.

What it requires

Cybersecurity law1 instrument, 1 in force

Research summary (449 words)

Wyoming has no enacted statute setting a security-program, safeguards or disposal duty on a private-sector operator that is distinct from breach notification, no product-security or connected-device statute, no insurance-sector data-security law, and no sector cyber-resilience regime a LexLint activity can express.

Wyoming's only enacted computer-security statute of general application, Wyo. Stat. Ann. secs. 40-12-501 to 40-12-511, is a breach-notification and credit-freeze regime housed in an article titled Credit Freeze Reports: its computer security breach section, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 40-12-502, requires an individual or commercial entity that owns or licenses computerized personal identifying information about a Wyoming resident to investigate and, where misuse has occurred or is reasonably likely, give notice once it becomes aware of a breach of the security of the system, and imposes no separate duty to safeguard, encrypt or securely dispose of that information before a breach occurs.

That breach-notification duty is already this jurisdiction's privacy-topic row and is not repeated here. No Wyoming statute requiring a private business to maintain reasonable security procedures, an information-security program, or a records-disposal practice for personal information, distinct from the notice duty above, is described here; a full-text search of the Trade and Commerce title for a reasonable-security-procedures, safeguards or disposal duty returned no match.

No Wyoming statute setting security requirements a software product or connected device must meet before or after market placement is described here either. Wyoming has not enacted the NAIC Insurance Data Security Model Law or any comparable insurance-sector information-security-program statute; a full-text search of the Insurance Code, Title 26, for an information security program, a cybersecurity event, or a data-security duty on a licensee returned no match.

Wyoming's state-agency data policy statute, Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 9-21-101, requires every state agency to adopt, enforce and maintain a policy on the collection, access, security and use of data, with administrative, physical and logical security safeguards, but binds only a state agency; nothing in the chapter read here extends the duty to a vendor or contractor doing business with the state, and it is filed as a row of its own with no activity flag.

Wyoming's Computer Crimes article, Wyo. Stat. Ann. secs. 6-3-501 to 6-3-507, penalizes a person who knowingly and without authorization accesses a computer, damages computer equipment, introduces malware or ransomware, or interferes with computer users; each of those offenses is committed against a system by an intruder rather than a duty on the system's operator or manufacturer, so it belongs to the scraping topic's computer-misuse family and is not filed here.

Wyoming Statutes section 9-21-101 requires every agency of the executive branch of state government to adopt, enforce and maintain a policy regarding the collection, access, security and use of data.

Sector security regimes

State agencies, data policies covering security safeguards and response to data security incidents

Wyo. Stat. Ann. sec. 9-21-101Text of Enrolled Act No. 18 (Senate File 38, 2016 Budget Session)

In force since . Binds government bodies.

What this law does

Every agency must adopt, enforce and maintain a policy regarding the collection, access, security and use of data. The policy must, at a minimum, comply with applicable federal and state law, adhere to standards set by the state chief information officer, and include an inventory and description of all data the agency collects or stores, authorization and authentication mechanisms for accessing the data, and administrative, physical and logical security safeguards, including employee training.

The policy must also include privacy and security compliance standards, processes for identification of and response to data security incidents, including breach notification and mitigation procedures, and, in accordance with existing law, processes for the destruction and communication of data.

An agency is any office, department, board, commission, council, institution, separate operating agency or other operating unit of the executive branch of state government, and does not include the state legislature, the judiciary, the University of Wyoming or any community college in the state. The governor, after consultation with the chief information officer, may set a date for specific agencies to comply and may revise that date as necessary. The act that created the section is effective .

Age gating law1 instrument, 1 in force

Research summary (77 words)

Wyoming has required age verification for covered internet platforms hosting material harmful to minors since , under HB 43 (Chapter 139, Session Laws of Wyoming 2025). A recurring bill to require parental consent for minors' social media accounts (most recently HB 19) has failed to receive the two thirds vote needed for introduction in multiple sessions, including 2024 and 2025. Wyoming has not enacted an app store accountability act or an age appropriate design code.

What this law does

Requires covered internet platforms that create, host, or make available material harmful to minors (obscene material or child pornography) to perform reasonable age verification of users, using a driver's license, identification card, passport, an age restricted credit or debit card, or another reliable method.

Exempts general internet service providers, search engines, and cloud service providers, and applies only to minors who are Wyoming residents or present in the state for at least 31 consecutive days.

These areas of law were researched here and no instrument was recorded. Each finding says what the research checked, as of the date under it. It describes our search, not a guarantee that no such law exists.

Reuse law

Wyoming has no press-publisher neighbouring right, no compelled platform-to-publisher bargaining code, and no reported Wyoming appellate decision recognizing a distinct hot-news misappropriation doctrine; no Wyoming bill comparable to California's since-failed Journalism Preservation Act or the federal Journalism Competition and Preservation Act proposals was located.

Title 40 (Trade and Commerce) was checked for a bargaining, licensing, or neighbouring-right scheme naming news, publishers, or aggregation, and carries none; Wyoming's general Consumer Protection Act, Wyo. Stat. Ann. §§ 40-12-101 to 40-12-116, is a general unfair-or-deceptive-practices statute with no provision addressing snippet reproduction, framing, or a publisher's payment right.

Snippet and headline reproduction, text-and-data-mining, database rights, and the liability of hyperlinking or framing are governed in Wyoming exclusively by federal copyright law and are not restated here.

Computer-Security Incident Notification Requirements for Banking Organizations and Their Bank Service Providers

12 CFR Part 53 (OCC); 12 CFR Part 225, Subpart N (Federal Reserve Board); 12 CFR Part 304, Subpart C (FDIC)security law, in force since

The sentences the clocks are read from

If your organization is a banking organization, notify your primary federal banking regulator, the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board, or the FDIC, whichever supervises it, about a notification incident, as soon as possible and no later than 36 hours after your organization determines that a notification incident has occurred.

A notification incident is the subset of computer-security incidents that has materially disrupted or degraded, or is reasonably likely to materially disrupt or degrade, your ability to serve customers, a business line, or an operation whose failure would threaten the financial stability of the United States, so a computer-security incident that falls short of that threshold does not by itself start this clock.

If your organization is a bank service provider, notify at least one bank-designated point of contact at each affected banking organization customer as soon as possible after your organization determines that it has experienced a computer-security incident that has materially disrupted or degraded, or is reasonably likely to materially disrupt or degrade, covered services provided to that banking organization for a period of four hours or more.

This duty carries a standard, as soon as possible, rather than a fixed number of hours to notify by, and that disruption threshold is what engages the duty rather than a period to notify within.
