The LDPA applies to a person or entity doing business in Louisiana that meets at least one of these thresholds:
-
Has annual gross revenue exceeding $25 million.
-
Annually buys, receives for commercial purposes, sells, or shares for commercial purposes personal information of 75,000 or more consumers, households, or devices.
-
Derives 50% or more of annual revenue from selling consumers’ personal information.
These are alternative tests. A business does not need to meet both a revenue threshold and a consumer-data threshold.
The law also contains exemptions for specified organizations and information. A consumer is a Louisiana resident acting in an individual or household context, excluding commercial and employment contexts.
