Fla. Stat. § 501.705
Florida consumer data rights (Florida Digital Bill of Rights)
In plain English
Florida gives consumers a set of rights (access, correction, deletion, portability, and several opt-outs, including precise geolocation and voice/facial-recognition data) that they can exercise by submitting a request to a covered controller.
Relevant provisions
- § 501.705(2)(a)–(b) — confirm processing / access and correct inaccuracies
- § 501.705(2)(c) — delete personal data provided by or obtained about the consumer
- § 501.705(2)(d) — portability
- § 501.705(2)(e) — opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or certain profiling
- § 501.705(2)(f) — opt out of collection/processing of sensitive data, including precise geolocation
- § 501.705(2)(g) — opt out of voice/facial-recognition data collection
- § 501.705(3) — limits on always-on device surveillance features
Applicability and limits
The rights are exercisable against businesses that qualify as "controllers" under Florida's Act. Florida's coverage thresholds are significant and are set out in Fla. Stat. § 501.702 — not every company that holds Florida residents' data is covered. Do not assume the rights apply universally.
