Senate Bill 2395, also known as the "Fourth Amendment is Not for Sale Act," amends Tennessee law to prohibit state agencies and local governmental entities from purchasing or obtaining personal information or sensitive data without a warrant, as required by existing law. The bill establishes that any officer, employee, or contractor who knowingly violates this prohibition will be committing a Class B misdemeanor. However, there are exceptions to this rule, allowing for the acquisition of personal data in specific circumstances, such as emergencies, with the individual's consent, or when mandated by federal law.

The bill also defines key terms such as "controller," "personal information," and "sensitive data," aligning them with existing definitions in Tennessee law. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, emphasizing the importance of protecting individual privacy rights against unauthorized data acquisition by government entities.
