Mid-Market Compliance Guide

Utah's UCPA is the most business-friendly US state privacy law. It requires BOTH $25 million+ annual revenue AND processing data of 100,000+ consumers (or 25,000+ consumers with 50% revenue from data sales). Notably, UCPA does NOT include a right to correct, making it narrower than most other state laws. The permanent 30-day cure period means the AG must always give businesses a chance to fix issues before penalties apply.

Key Requirements

  • Provide a privacy notice disclosing data categories and purposes
  • Obtain consent before processing sensitive data
