California's DROP requirements began on August 1, 2026, mandating data brokers process consumer deletion requests through a centralized platform, while states like New Jersey and Connecticut have introduced or expanded robust data broker laws with registration, fees, and broader definitions of regulated entities.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Regtech, and 7 sources have reported it between 4 Aug 2026 and 16 Aug 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face significant new compliance tasks as California, New Jersey, and Connecticut tighten data broker regulations and enforce consumer deletion requests; delays in adapting your data handling risk steep fines and operational disruption.
