IT’S THE LAW (04/09/2024)
Colorado’s “Act Concerning Protection of the Privacy of Individuals’ Biological Data”, is a law pending the governor’s signature. Once passed, it will mark the first law in the US specifically designed to protect collection, use and disclosure of biological (including genetic, biochemical, and physiological) data and neural (relating to central or peripheral nervous system) data. This is seen as an important area of privacy law other states are expected to put increased emphasis on.
