Oregon Amends Data Breach Notification Law to Include Vendor Obligations; Expanded Definition of Personal Information

Posted on June 12, 2019 by Dissent

Daniel J. Moses of JacksonLewis writes:

As we recently noted, Washington state amended its data breach notification law on May 7 to expand the definition of “personal information” and shorten the notification deadline (among other changes). Not to be outdone by its sister state to the north, Oregon followed suit shortly thereafter—Senate Bill 684 passed unanimously in both legislative bodies on May 20, and was signed into law by Governor Kate Brown on May 24. The amendments will become effective January 1, 2020.

Among the changes effected by SB 684 is a trimming of the Act’s short title—now styled the “Oregon Consumer Information Protection Act” or “OCIPA” (formerly the “Oregon Consumer Identity Theft Protection Act” or “OCITPA”). Apart from establishing a much more palatable acronym, the amended short title mirrors the national (and international) trend of expanding laws beyond mere “identity theft protection” to focus on larger scale consumer privacy and data rights.
