“Right to Know” Will Require Illinois Businesses to Capture More Data on You

Posted in:

[The following is a paid advertisement.]

Proponents of HB 2774 & SB 1502, the so-called “Right to Know” bills, claim that the legislation will prevent companies from being able to sell your data – but this isn’t the truth. Instead, it will force businesses both large and small to collect and disclose more data about their customers.

The legislation will NOT prohibit companies from selling or sharing information. It would instead require companies, businesses and organizations to create expensive and complex IT systems to capture even more data on users. Personal consumer information is already protected by terms of service agreements and enforced by the Federal Trade Commission and the Illinois Attorney General.
 
HB 2774 & SB 1502 are not only unnecessary and duplicative, but will also place a costly burden on Illinois small businesses and start-ups, damaging our growing tech economy. That’s why the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the Illinois Restaurant Association and numbers of other organizations vehemently oppose these bills.
 
Let’s work together to keep Illinois businesses and consumers’ data safe and secure. Vote NO on House Bill 2774 & Senate Bill 1502.
