Blue Shield Privacy Act of 2025

HR 4828 expands federal privacy law by adding biometric information, license plate numbers, workplace addresses, school addresses, and GPS coordinates to the list of "restricted personal information" under Title 18, U.S. Code. This directly affects businesses and organizations that collect personal data, requiring them to apply the same strict privacy safeguards to these newly protected data types. The bill modifies an existing legal definition rather than creating new requirements or enforcement mechanisms. It applies to any entity subject to current privacy regulations for restricted data. The key change clarifies which specific information categories receive enhanced protection under federal law.
