relative to establishing penalties for violations of the confidentiality of motor vehicle records.

HB 330 prohibits unauthorized copying, retention, or scanning of driver's license data - except for specific government purposes like voting verification or court orders. It imposes fines of at least $100,000 per violation for individuals (misdemeanor) and entities (felony), plus lifetime identity theft protection for affected residents, with $100,000 per person fines for data breaches. The bill directly affects government agencies, private businesses, and anyone handling driver's license information, strengthening privacy protections for New Hampshire residents' personal data. It takes effect January 1, 2026, and aligns with the state’s finding that license data is constitutionally confidential.
