AI Summary

  • Creates Florida Statute 320.646 to regulate how licensees and third parties handle consumer data obtained from motor vehicle dealers, including nonpublic personal information as defined by federal law
  • Requires licensees to comply with federal and state restrictions on consumer data reuse and disclosure, and provide written statements to dealers describing data safeguard procedures that meet or exceed Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act standards
  • Allows dealers to request a list of consumer data obtained and all persons who received it no more than once every 6 months, with exceptions for service providers under data protection agreements and persons with prior dealer consent
  • Prohibits licensees from requiring dealers to grant direct access to their data management systems; instead requires licensees to accept consumer data in widely-accepted file formats and through third-party vendors selected by dealers, unless dealer provides express written consent in a separate document
  • Requires licensees to indemnify dealers for third-party claims and damages caused by unauthorized access, use, or disclosure of consumer data, and establishes that litigation against licensees must prove violations were willful or showed a pattern of wrongdoing
