Iowa State Capitol

Iowa became the sixth U.S. state to pass comprehensive data protection legislation allowing residents control over how their personal information is accessed and shared.

The Iowa privacy bill (SF 262) was signed into law by Gov. Kim Reynolds on Tuesday. The legislation is set to take effect Jan. 1, 2025.

“In our digital age, it’s never been more important to state, clearly and unmistakably, that consumers deserve a reasonable level of transparency and control over their personal data,” said Reynolds in a press release. “That’s exactly what this bill does, making Iowa just the sixth state to provide this kind of comprehensive protection.”
