New York is policing website tracking right now

New York's SHIELD Act sets strict data-security and breach duties, and the Attorney General is actively pursuing companies over tracking pixels and untracked data flows. A comprehensive New York Privacy Act is one of the next dominoes to fall.

Why New York now
// The New York pressure

Four forces putting New York businesses on the clock

SHIELD Act Duties

The SHIELD Act (GBL §§ 899-aa/bb) requires reasonable safeguards and 30-day breach notification for any business holding New Yorkers' data — expanded in 2025 to cover more sensitive information.

AG Pixel & API Scrutiny

In 2025 the New York Attorney General settled over a web tool that leaked data through untracked API calls, pressing businesses to map exactly where personal data flows.

Tracker & Pixel Exposure

Third-party pixels and session tools firing before consent are drawing both regulatory and plaintiff attention across New York.

NY Privacy Act On The Horizon

A comprehensive consumer-privacy bill has been advancing in Albany — getting consent right now means no scramble when it passes.
