The United States has a sectoral approach to data privacy β no single federal law covers all businesses, but multiple laws apply depending on your industry and the data you collect. Key federal laws include COPPA (children's data), HIPAA (health data), GLBA (financial data), and CAN-SPAM (email marketing). FTC enforcement can result in significant penalties for deceptive data practices.
