The Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act (MCDPA) was signed into law by Montana Governor Greg Gianforte on May 19, 2023, after the state legislature unanimously approved it. It will now come into effect on October 1, 2024.
The MCDPA applies to all entities that conduct business in Montana or produce products/services targeted to Montana residents and control or process the personal data of at least 50,000 consumers or derive more than 25% of their gross revenue from selling the personal data of at least 25,000 consumers.
With the MCDPA, Montana became the ninth state within the US to have such a comprehensive data privacy regulation. Consequently, it shares several aspects and provisions with some of the other state’s data regulations.
Securiti empowers organizations to ensure compliance with each provision of Montana’s Consumer Data Privacy Act (MCDPA) with its plethora of products, which include, but are not limited to, AI-driven data discovery, DSR automation, universal consent management, autonomous documented accountability, data breach management, and vendor risk assessment.

The Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act guarantees consumers the following rights:
All consumers have the right to confirm whether a controller is processing their personal data and subsequently access any such collected data unless such access would require the controller to reveal a trade secret.
All consumers have the right to request correction of any inaccuracies in their collected personal data, taking into account the nature of the data and the purposes for which the data was collected.
All consumers have the right to request deletion of any personal data collected by the controller.
All consumers have the right to obtain a copy of their personal data collected by the controller in a portable and readily usable format that allows for the collected personal data to be transferred and transmitted to another controller without hindrance, provided that this does not require the controller to reveal a trade secret.
All consumers have the right to opt out of the processing of their personal data by a controller if the processing is related to the following purposes:
The controller must ensure there is an appropriate mechanism and process in place for the consumers to appeal a controller’s refusal to act on a request in a reasonable period after the consumer's receipt of the decision.
Here are some key facts to know about the MCDPA:
A controller may charge a reasonable fee covering administrative costs if the requests are manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive;¨
A controller may decline to take action and honor a consumer’s DSR request if such a request cannot be authenticated via commercially reasonable efforts;
Under the MCDPA, a controller must respond to a consumer’s request within 45 days of the receipt of the request. However, this period can be extended for an additional 45 days when reasonably necessary owing to the complexity or number of requests received;
The Office of the Attorney General of Montana will have the exclusive authority to enforce provisions of the MCDPA;
The Attorney General must issue a notice of violation to the controller before taking any action;
The controller will have 60 days to remedy the alleged violation before the controller initiates further action;
The MCDPA will come into effect on October 1, 2024.
