RÉSUMÉ DIGEST
ACT 95 (HB 808) 2020 Regular Session Magee
New law requires an insurer to provide an insured with a discount when an insured gives
consent to allow the insurer to share with or sell to a third party the named insured's
personally identifiable data that has been collected through a safe driving program,
application, or telematics device, when the data is not being shared or sold to the third party
for use related either to the insurance transaction or public safety or to promote a public
policy or purpose.
New law provides that before providing a third party with the named insured's data an insurer
is required to seek and obtain consent through a separate statement of consent with a box that
must be selected or checked off by the insured to acknowledge the insured is opting to give
such consent.
New law redesignates existing law.
Effective Aug. 1, 2020.
