Data privacy-government entities.

Wyoming's HB 163 requires state and local government entities (excluding courts and law enforcement) to create policies for handling personal data. It limits data collection to what's necessary for official duties, restricts retention to three years (unless justified), and mandates secure handling. Residents can request copies of their data, challenge inaccuracies, and seek corrections within 30 days. The law sets phased deadlines: state agencies must comply by July 2025, counties/cities by 2026, and other local entities by 2027.
