This bill amends existing New Jersey law to exempt insurance-support organizations from certain notification and disclosure requirements regarding the collection and use of personal data. Specifically, it adds a new provision that states these organizations, as defined in the relevant statute, are not subject to the obligations outlined in N.J.S.A.56:8-166.4 et seq. This aligns with existing exemptions for other entities, such as financial institutions and covered health entities, which are already protected under various federal laws.
The bill also makes a minor change to the language regarding the sale of consumer data by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, replacing the term "Drivers'" with the full title of the "Drivers Privacy Protection Act of 1994." Additionally, it clarifies that personal data collected for research purposes is exempt from these requirements, further delineating the scope of the law. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
