The Maryland Online Data Privacy Act (MODPA), signed into law on May 9, 2024, establishes comprehensive data privacy protections for Maryland residents. Effective October 1, 2025, MODPA granted consumers rights to confirm and access, correct, delete, data portability, transparency, and to opt out of its sale, targeted advertising, and profiling.

The Act imposes strict limitations on collecting, processing, sharing, and selling sensitive data, including genetic or biometric data, children's personal data, and precise geolocation data.

Businesses must provide clear privacy notices and conduct data protection assessments for high-risk processing activities. The Division of Consumer Protection in the Office of the Attorney General manages enforcement, and civil penalties are up to $10,000 per violation and up to $25,000 for repeated violations.
