Don’t Sell Kids’ Data Act of 2025
HR 6292, the Don’t Sell Kids’ Data Act of 2025, prohibits data brokers from collecting, using, selling, or sharing the personal information of children (under 13) and teens (13-18). It requires data brokers to delete such data upon request from the teen, parent, or guardian and establish a clear process for these requests within 10 days. The law empowers the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to enforce the ban as a deceptive practice, allows states to sue on behalf of residents, and lets individuals file lawsuits for violations - awarding at least $1,000 per violation. The bill directly affects data brokers and aims to protect minors’ privacy by restricting how their personal information is handled online.
