Colorado's Privacy Act (CPA, C.R.S. Section 6-1-1301 et seq., effective July 1, 2023) grants Colorado residents rights to access, delete, correct, and opt out of personal data processing. Uniquely, Colorado requires businesses to honor universal opt-out mechanisms such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal by July 1, 2024, meaning consumers don't even need to send individual opt-out requests if they have GPC enabled.

Colorado Privacy Notice FAQs

What is the Global Privacy Control and does it work in Colorado?▾

The Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a browser-level signal that tells websites you opt out of the sale or targeted advertising use of your data. Colorado requires businesses to honor GPC signals under C.R.S. Section 6-1-1306(1)(a)(III) as of July 1, 2024. Enabling GPC in your browser (Firefox, Chrome with GPC extension, Brave) acts as an automatic opt-out for covered Colorado businesses.

What rights do I have under the Colorado Privacy Act?▾

Access, delete, correct, data portability, and opt out of targeted advertising / sale / profiling for significant decisions. Controllers must respond within 45 days (extendable 45 more). Colorado also has strong data minimization and security requirements for controllers.

Who enforces Colorado's privacy law?▾

The Colorado AG has exclusive enforcement authority. There is no private right of action. File complaints at coag.gov. The AG has been actively investigating companies that fail to provide opt-out mechanisms or respond to consumer requests.
