Summary

I f an account holder terminates their account on a social media platform , then this bill requires the platform to delete all personal information pertaining to that account. This requirement applies to any information that is linked or reasonably linkable to an identified or identifiable natural person, including data collected directly through the platform via the deleted account, whether that information was generated by the account holder or by another user. However, these requirements do not apply to broadband internet access and email services, services that primarily provide career development opportunities, cloud storage or computing services, and internet applications where interactive functionality is incidental to preselected content or predominantly limited to online shopping, technical support, or peer-to-peer payment processing. These requirements do not limit or otherwise affect a platform ' s obligations under the Tennessee Information Privacy Act ( " TIPA "" ). If an account holder does not dele te the account but requests deletion of personal information, the platform must process that request in accordance with TIPA ' s consumer rights provisions. CIVIL REMEDIES This bill authorizes a person who believes a social media platform has violated the deletion requirements to bring a civil cause of action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the platform or the social media company. A court finding a violation may issue an injunction and award the prevailing party (i) a ctual damages; (ii) p unitive damages; and (iii) r easonable court costs and attorney fees."
