Who must comply with the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“CDPA”)?

The CDPA applies to entities that conduct business in Virginia or target Virginia residents during a calendar year that either:

1. Control or process personal data of at least 100,000 Virginia residents; or

2. Control or process personal data of at least 25,000 Virginia consumers and derive over 50% of gross revenue from the sale of personal data.

The statute is unclear as to whether the revenue threshold applies to Virginia residents only and it does not have a minimum revenue threshold for the law to apply.
