New Jersey Enacts Law Establishing Data Broker Registration Regime and Imposing Prohibitions on Sensitive Data Sales

2026-07-23  Ian Fleming

The Act took effect immediately, with the exception of the data broker/data collector registry requirements. The Division announced in its July 10 alert that it plans to launch the registry in spring 2027, with registration open from April to June 2027. The Division also indicated in that alert its intent to issue additional guidance “in the coming months” to clarify the Act’s requirements. The law has already received significant criticism within New Jersey, with many companies and commentators criticizing the law’s speedy passage and onerous requirements.
