Texas’s Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) was enacted on 18 June 2023 and is expected to come into effect on 1 July 2024. Thus, Texas officially became the 11th state in the US to have a comprehensive regulation on data privacy.
The TDPSA contains all the necessary provisions to ensure all consumers and their personal data are afforded appropriate protection while also being flexible enough for businesses to continue their operations without a major overhaul of their data management practices being necessary.
The law applies to all entities that conduct business in Texas or produce products or services specifically catering to Texas residents, engage in the sale of personal data. The law does not apply to small businesses as defined by the United States Small Business Administration unless you engage in the sale of sensitive data without the consent of the consumer. Key obligations for organizations subject to the TDPSA include data minimization, protection for sensitive data, transparent privacy notice, and thorough and regular data protection assessments.
Securiti empowers organizations to ensure compliance with each provision of Texas’ Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) 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.
Each of the solutions mentioned above is backed up by state-of-the-art artificial intelligence and machine-learning-based algorithms, making Securiti a market leader in providing data compliance and governance solutions.

Consumers have the right to request any collected personal data be deleted.
Consumers have the right to request a copy of their personal data provided in a portable and readily usable format that can be transmitted to another controller without any issues.
