US State Privacy Laws: The 2026 Evergreen Map

Evergreen 2026 map of US comprehensive state privacy laws —.

Published: September 2026 Compliance · US Privacy 10–14 min read

As of 2026 the United States still lacks a single federal comprehensive privacy law. Organisations must navigate a growing patchwork of state consumer privacy acts. This page is CyberSilo’s evergreen 2026 hub (replacing the dated 2025 URL).

CCPA/CPRA business thresholds (current): For-profit doing business in California that collects CA consumers’ personal information and meets one or more of: (1) annual gross revenues in excess of $26,625,000 (CPI-adjusted amount effective Jan 1, 2025 under §1798.199.95(d); statutory base was $25M) in the preceding calendar year; (2) annually buys, sells, or shares the personal information of 100,000 or more consumers or households; (3) derives 50% or more of annual revenues from selling or sharing consumers’ personal information. The older pre-CPRA 50,000 consumers/households/devices threshold is no longer the current test.

CCPA Consumer Request Clocks

Respond to verifiable consumer requests to know, delete, or correct within 45 days; one extension of an additional 45 days when reasonably necessary with notice in the first period (§1798.130). Regulations also expect acknowledgment within 10 business days.

Breach Notice vs CCPA Rights

California security breach notice to residents is under Civil Code §1798.82 (most expedient time / without unreasonable delay). That is distinct from CCPA consumer-rights clocks. See the breach deadlines matrix.

What is the current CCPA revenue threshold?

Annual gross revenues in excess of $26,625,000 (CPI-adjusted effective Jan 1, 2025), or the volume/share tests — one or more of the three statutory tests.

Is there a federal privacy law?

Not a comprehensive one as of 2026. Sector laws (HIPAA, GLBA, COPPA, etc.) still apply.
