A trio of privacy bills are before the Hawaii Legislature. Senate Bill 2428 and SB 2797 would each establish a framework with penalties for regulating controllers and processors that access consumers’ personal data and create a consumer privacy special fund. House Bill 2051 would establish the Hawaii Consumer Privacy Act, specifying consumers’ personal data rights and outlining obligations for businesses regarding collection, disclosure, sharing and selling of personal information. SB 2428 and SB 2797 passed their first readings and were given committee assignments. HB 2051 has been filed and its introduction is pending.
