What is the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act?
The Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act (DPDPA) is a comprehensive privacy law that gives Delaware residents greater control over how businesses collect, use, and share their personal information.
The law became effective on January 1, 2025, and establishes consumer privacy rights while requiring certain businesses to responsibly manage the personal data they collect and process.
Does the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act apply to my business?
The DPDPA generally applies to businesses that conduct business in Delaware or provide products or services to Delaware residents and meet specific legal thresholds related to the processing of personal data.
Not every business is subject to the law. Whether the DPDPA applies depends on factors such as the amount of personal data your organization processes and the nature of your business activities.
If you're unsure whether your business is subject to the DPDPA, consult qualified legal counsel.
What rights does the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act provide?
The DPDPA provides Delaware consumers with several important rights, including:
• The right to access personal data.
• The right to correct inaccurate personal data.
• The right to delete personal data.
• The right to obtain a portable copy of personal data.
• The right to opt out of targeted advertising, the sale of personal data, and certain profiling activities.
Businesses subject to the law must also provide a process for consumers to exercise these rights.

What does this mean for your website?
Every website is different.
Some organizations may only need to review their privacy policies. Others may benefit from implementing a Consent Management Platform (CMP), configuring Google Consent Mode, reviewing third-party technologies, or updating how visitor information is collected.
Understanding which privacy requirements apply depends on your business, your website, and the technologies you use.
