Question 86 - CIPP-US discussion

Most state laws require that a person or business that conducts business in the state and owns or licenses personal information of residents of that state must notify those residents of any breach of the security of the system involving their personal information. This means that the entity does not have to be physically located in the state, have employees in the state, or be registered in the state to be subject to the breach notification requirements, as long as it conducts business in the state and holds personal information of state residents. Conducting business in the state can be interpreted broadly to include any transaction or activity that involves the state or its residents, such as selling goods or services, collecting payments, or maintaining a website accessible by state residents. The other options (B, C, and D) are not commonly required by most state laws, although some states may have additional or specific requirements for certain types of entities, such as information brokers, health care providers, or financial institutions.Reference:
