Enacting the Kansas age-appropriate design code act to require businesses to assess and mitigate risks of compulsive use in minors; enacting the Kansas stopping likeness abuse by nonconsensual digital replicas act to create a private right of action for the unauthorized digital replication and distribution of individuals' digital likenesses; enacting the Kansas saving human connection act to prohibit deceptive practices and ensure transparency in chatbot interactions.

HB 2772 creates three new consumer protection laws in Kansas. The Age-Appropriate Design Code Act requires businesses to assess and reduce risks of compulsive digital product use among minors, set privacy settings for minors to the highest default level, and give consumers control over their personal data. The Stopping Likeness Abuse Act establishes a private right of action for individuals whose digital likenesses are used without consent. The Saving Human Connection Act mandates transparency in chatbot interactions, prohibits deceptive practices, and holds chatbot providers liable for injuries caused by their products. These provisions directly affect digital businesses, chatbot providers, and Kansas residents using digital services.
