MR. SOLTANI described the lobbying  efforts business engage in to

justify federal preemption.  He  pointed out that there have been                                                               
letters to  the committee from business  interests advocating for

Consumer Data  Protection Act (VCDPA), which  was drafted largely                                                               
by  Amazon and  other  large industry  interests.   He  expressed                                                               
approval of  HB 159's  definition of  "pseudonymous" information,                                                               
which  does not  refer  to individuals  by  name but  nonetheless                                                               
permits data  brokers to exchange information  about individuals.                                                               
The  definition  responds to  the  realities  of current  digital                                                               
advertising  practices, he  said,  in which  online tracking  and                                                               
profiling  relies  on  pseudonyms  such  as  numeric  identifiers                                                               
corresponding to an individual or a device.                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                
MR.  SOLTANI expressed  approval of  the addition  of "authorized                                                               
agents for consumer rights," and  he shared that such an addition                                                               
may relieve  consumers of  the onerous  task of  requesting their                                                               
information from every business that  has it.  Allowing consumers                                                               
to exercise their  rights through the use of  an authorized agent                                                               
may  assist in  the  development in  new  industry standards  and                                                               
market solutions  to innovate new  ways to manage  consumer data.                                                               
He then pointed out that HB  159 also provides consumers with the                                                               
right to know who has  their information beyond the business that                                                               
initially  collected  it; having  that  knowledge,  he said,  may                                                               
allow consumers to  request the deletion of  their information or                                                               
opt out of future sales.                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                
MR. SOLTANI  suggested several changes  to HB 159.   He suggested                                                               
including  the   Global  Privacy   Control  (GPC),   which  helps                                                               
implement opt-out  preferences for businesses; instead  of having                                                               
to go through  the onerous work of opting out  on each individual                                                               
website, he said, GPC would  integrate with a consumer's Internet                                                               
browser.    He  stated  that 40  million  consumers  already  use                                                               
browsers  with  built-in  privacy  controls; GPC  would  allow  a                                                               
consumer to click  one button to opt out of  all online tracking.                                                               
He  said  the  California  Office of  the  Attorney  General  has                                                               
recognized GPC  as a  valid standard  and will  begin enforcement                                                               
against companies that don't recognize GPC's opt-out function.                                                                  
                                                                                                                                
3:32:51 PM                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
MR. SOLTANI  suggested that the  proposed legislation  be amended                                                               
to  update  the  definition  of   "sale"  to  include  "sale  and                                                               
sharing."   He  said the  business industry  has begun  arranging                                                               
contracts for the sharing of  personal information, indicating in                                                               
the  contract that  a transaction  was a  "no value"  exchange in                                                               
order to circumvent the initial prohibitions in CCPA.                                                                           
                                                                                                                                
MR. SOLTANI  addressed verified user  requests and said  that the                                                               
proposed  legislation  should  not require  customers  to  submit                                                               
verified requests to  opt out of business use of  their data.  He                                                               
noted that verified requests for  access and deletion of data are

he said,  and does not need  the same level of  verification.  He                                                               
pointed  out that  the proposed  legislation should  include that

MR. SOLTANI said that the people  qualified to do such work would

when  implementing  the  Global   Privacy  Control  (GPC)  in  an                                                               
Internet browser.                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                
MR.  SOLTANI  replied  that current  law  requires  companies  to                                                               
provide a  link for  consumers to  opt out of  the sale  of their

the consumer.   He said that  the question now is,  "What happens                                                               
after the button is clicked?"   He stated that HB 159 would allow

to  the consumer's  choice  to  opt out  of  data  sharing.   For                                                               
example, he  said, "When a  business encounters a  Global Privacy                                                               
Control they could say, 'We've noticed  you would like to opt out                                                               
of the  sale of  your personal  information.   Would you  like to

would you  like to pay a  fee?' or whatever else  the law permits                                                               
when  a consumer  opts out."   He  clarified that  GPC is  like a                                                               
little robot  that clicks the "do  not sell" link.   He said that                                                               
most  websites honor  GPC without  any  extra fees  to the  user;                                                               
however,  while the  current ecosystem  of the  data-supported ad

MR. SOLTANI  responded that  the law permits  that a  company may

CO-CHAIR  FIELDS   asked  about   the  best  practices   for  the

MR. SOLTANI replied that he  believes the "opt-in" requirement is                                                               
critical.  He  said discussed the civil penalty  judgement in FTC

shared  the  argument that  a  website  that contains  children's                                                               
content should be held to a higher standard.

REPRESENTATIVE SNYDER  asked for  a written summary  or resources

MR. SOLTANI agreed.                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                
CO-CHAIR FIELDS  noted that his  staff has been keeping  track of                                                               
all  the  recommendations  from  Mr.  Soltani  and  the  previous

and  he said  he  will be  considering  those recommendations  in                                                               
drafting  a  committee  substitute that  would  protect  Alaska's                                                               
businesses   while  ensuring   adequate   oversight  of   outside

MR. SOLTANI added  that, since the passage of CCPA  and CPRA, the                                                               
business  industry will  fight legislation  in every  state.   He                                                               
pointed  out  that  the  issue is  so  technically  nuanced  that                                                               
California's legislation  almost included a  seven-word amendment                                                               
that would have nullified the standards in the legislation.                                                                     
                                                                                                                                
CO-CHAIR  FIELDS said  that his  intent  is to  work through  the

REPRESENTATIVE SNYDER  referenced Sec. 45.49.015 and  asked for a

MR.  HALEY replied  that "person"  would be  defined as  either a

qualifying under the definition  of "business" would be "persons"

REPRESENTATIVE  SNYDER  said  she  was  trying  to  understand  a

MR.  HALEY responded  that he  hasn't thought  of a  situation in                                                               
which a  business would disclose a  person's personal information                                                               
to  a  legislator.    He  said the  main  intent  is  to  address

individual  should be  able to  understand which,  and how  many,                                                               
businesses have  their personal information  by making  a request                                                               
of  the  initial collector.    The  sharing of  information  with                                                               
smaller corporations who don't meet  the definition of "business"

MR. HALEY responded that the intent  is to provide a general rule

REPRESENTATIVE  KAUFMAN  asked  whether  the problem  is  in  the                                                               
writing or  in the "pure  difficulty" of  the concept.   He said,                                                               
"To say that  it has to be  equal, but then it  can be different,

MR. HALEY replied that the general  rule is that while a business

REPRESENTATIVE SCHRAGE asked Mr. Haley  whether there is a reason                                                               
that outright denying a good or service would not be allowed.                                                                   
                                                                                                                                
MR. HALEY responded  that the subsection is  attempting to create

If denying a service was included,  he said, it wouldn't fit well

     below,  for  the  Department of  Law  to  offset  costs                                                                    
     incurred in connection with enforcing this chapter.                                                                        
                                                                                                                                
MR. HALEY said that in order  to bring a claim against a business                                                               
under the Unfair Trade Practices  and Consumer Protection Act, an

money  or  property.   He  said  that  it's  very likely  that  a                                                               
consumer would not  be able to demonstrate such a  loss because a

pointed out that if an action  is brought under AS 45.50.531, the                                                               
Private Person Unfair  Trade Practices Act, an  automatic loss of                                                               
$1 is created in order to get a business into court.                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
4:13:57 PM
