The proposed bill aims to enhance the protection of personal information for certain public servants in Florida, including judges, law enforcement officers, and other officials, by allowing them to notify data brokers to prevent the disclosure of their personal data. The bill establishes a new section, 111.101, in the Florida Statutes, which defines key terms such as "covered person," "data broker," and "protected information." It mandates that upon receiving a written notice from a covered person or their authorized agent, data brokers must cease the disclosure of the specified personal information within ten business days.

Additionally, the bill outlines enforcement mechanisms for violations, allowing covered persons to bring civil actions against non-compliant data brokers. It specifies that damages may include actual or liquidated damages, punitive damages for willful violations, and reasonable attorney fees. The bill emphasizes the importance of protecting public servants from threats and violence, reflecting legislative findings on the rising risks they face due to the accessibility of their personal information. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
