Data Privacy
Consumers and small businesses deserve strong, harmonized data privacy protections. FDATA supports policies that balance innovation with important privacy safeguards, while avoiding fragmented, duplicative regimes.
We work with policymakers in both the United States and Canada to address gaps in existing regulatory frameworks, advance preemptive federal financial data privacy regimes, and eliminate duplicative or contradictory regulatory requirements for our members.
- United States: Addressing gaps in GLBA and FCRA, while advocating for a unified federal privacy framework.
- Canada: Supporting alignment between the CPPA, OSFI guidelines, and open banking standards.
