When responding to this concern, the need to look in to already existing laws that guide the right to privacy is of ultimate priority, looking at internet privacy laws in the US, under data security, " In general, these laws govern how a business collects, stores and keeps its confidential consumer data safe. In addition to safeguards that prevent or deter hacks or intrusions, most of these regulations also impose standards regarding access to, usage of, and disclosure of data. Some states are more rigorous than others when it comes to keeping their citizen’s data safe."

Then also under data disposal " Data disposal laws apply to information in both paper and digital form that is no longer relevant to the enterprise. After it achieves its purpose or the customer relationship ends and the PII isn’t needed, the entity must dispose of it using a method that renders the sensitive information unreadable or indecipherable.

Some businesses and government agencies handle this duty in-house, while others contract it out to a third-party. In most states, the collector of the information retains liability if the third-party contractor fails to properly dispose of the data."

Also under Non-PII privacy, " States with such regulations aim to closely monitor and restrict how businesses / organizations use non-PII data collected from their customers — data such as how many times a user visits a page, how long they stay, and what they look at while they’re there.

Many companies also share or sell this data to third parties who use the information for their own proprietary needs. Several states have passed bills that identify specific types of non-PII data that they believe are worth additional levels of protection."
