AN ACT PROHIBITING CERTAIN SALES OF CONSUMERS' GENETIC INFORMATION.
SB 146 prohibits businesses that collect consumers' genetic information from selling it to third parties. This directly affects companies offering genetic testing or DNA services (e.g., ancestry or health-related kits) and protects consumers whose genetic data is collected. The key provision bans the sale of such information, requiring businesses to retain it solely for their own services without sharing it with external entities. The bill focuses on preventing commercial exploitation of sensitive genetic data without specifying enforcement or exceptions.
