Healthcare (Women's Health · Privacy)

HB 2735 requires health digital services (like apps tracking reproductive or sexual health) to obtain explicit user consent before sharing, selling, or using sensitive health data - including pregnancy status, birth control usage, or gender transition care details. It prohibits government entities from demanding this data for most investigations, except limited criminal cases unrelated to abortion, pregnancy outcomes, or gender transition care. The bill directly affects health apps, their users, and state/local law enforcement agencies. Key provisions mandate affirmative consent for each data use instance and restrict government access to protect privacy around reproductive and sexual health information.
