Florida Privacy

Florida has its own rules

Let's clear something up first: FIPA is not simply "Florida's CIPA." The Florida Information Protection Act is a different law with a different focus — it's primarily about how businesses protect personal information and what happens when that information is breached.

If your business collects personal information from Florida customers — names, emails, phone numbers, account details, payment-adjacent data — you have obligations around how that data is secured and what you do if something goes wrong.

What this means for your website

• Personal information — know what your site collects through forms, accounts, and transactions
• Data security — reasonable measures to protect the information you hold
• Privacy notices — disclosures that accurately describe your actual practices
• Sensitive information — extra care around data that deserves it
• Breach considerations — Florida law includes notification requirements when breaches occur

Beyond the privacy policy

A privacy policy copied from the internet that doesn't match what your website actually does can be worse than none at all. We see it constantly: the policy says one thing, the website does another, and the gap between them is where problems live.

We help close that gap on the technical side — auditing data collection points, securing forms and storage, tightening access, and aligning your site's behavior with your stated policies. Your attorney handles the legal analysis; we make the website match the intent.
