Mississippi Consumer Privacy Protection Act; create.

HB 1051, the Mississippi Consumer Privacy Protection Act, would create new privacy rights for Mississippi residents by requiring businesses with over $25 million in annual revenue operating in the state to implement specific data practices. It grants consumers the right to access, correct, delete, or opt out of the processing of their personal information, with businesses required to respond within 45 days and provide clear privacy notices. The law would mandate security measures for businesses, exempt health data under HIPAA, and give Mississippi’s Attorney General exclusive enforcement authority, including civil penalties for violations. The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and has not become law.
