Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA)
UCPA has a $25M+ revenue threshold plus processing thresholds described in the statute. Consumers have rights to confirm processing, delete, access, and opt out of targeted advertising and sale; effective July 1, 2026, they may also request correction of inaccuracies. The statute does not include the same profiling opt-out provisions found in some peer laws. Enforcement is exclusively by the AG; no private right of action. The current enforcement provision includes a cure rule subject to its notice and exception requirements.
