No comprehensive consumer privacy law (as of 2026)

Status: No active comprehensive consumer data privacy statute; regulated instead by sector-specific laws and the Data Broker Registry.

Vermont does not have a broad consumer privacy law regulating the general collection and sale of personal data like other states. Instead, it focuses transparency efforts on the data broker industry and enforces general consumer protection against unfair trade practices. Businesses handling health or financial data remain subject to specific sectoral regulations.

Consumer rights

No comprehensive statutory consumer privacy rights specific to this state as of 2026; general consumer-protection rules may still apply.

Who it generally applies to

No general thresholds. The specific Data Broker Registry applies to businesses buying/selling personal data of VT residents not collected directly from the consumer.

What this means for B2B outreach

Broad consumer privacy statutes do not exist, so B2B contact data is largely unregulated at the state level, provided it does not fall under federal CAN-SPAM or other specific sector rules.
