Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz recently signed into law HF 4757, the Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act, making Minnesota the 18th state to enact a comprehensive consumer data privacy law. The Act will go into effect July 31, 2025.

There were a number of consumer data privacy bills in play during the state’s legislative session that never made it to the finish line. Ultimately, the Act hitched a ride in a bill related to appropriations, cannabis policy, and commerce policy.
