Indiana Consumer Data Protection Act (INCDPA)
INCDPA applies to a person doing business in Indiana or targeting Indiana residents that meets either the 100,000-consumer branch or the 25,000-consumer-plus-more-than-50%-sale-revenue branch, subject to exemptions. Rights include access, correction, deletion, portability, and opt-outs from sale, targeted advertising, and certain profiling. Controllers generally respond within 45 days, with a possible 45-day extension, and decide appeals within 60 days. The Attorney General has exclusive enforcement authority, with a 30-day written notice-and-cure process and penalties up to $7,500 per violation; there is no private right of action.

Both laws provide access, correction, deletion, portability, and opt-out rights, but their definitions, exemptions, notice requirements, and enforcement mechanics differ. Compare the current Indiana and Virginia texts instead of treating them as interchangeable.
