# Should Utah's Privacy Law Be on Your Radar?

By Phillip Walters/ Published on November 17, 2022

When it comes to privacy compliance, businesses will have a lot on their plate in 2023. Major changes to the [California Consumer Privacy Act](https://safe.truevault.com/learn/ccpa/what-is-the-ccpa) (CCPA) are going into effect (including the expiration of [employee data exemption](https://safe.truevault.com/blog/ca-legislature-fails-to-extend-ccpa-exemptions-for-employee-b2b-data)), as well as four new state privacy laws. Among these is the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA).

The UCPA is somewhat more pro-business than the other state laws, including the [Virginia Consumer Data Privacy Act](https://safe.truevault.com/resources/virginia/what-is-the-virginia-consumer-data-protection-act) on which it’s modeled, but it still imposes significant privacy obligations. The first step toward compliance is determining whether Utah’s privacy law applies to your business.

# Which Businesses Must Comply with the UCPA?

Compared to the other data privacy laws, the UCPA is narrower in scope. A for-profit business must comply with the Utah Consumer Privacy Act if it meets the following three criteria:

1. It does business in the state of Utah,
2. It has at least $25 million in annual revenue, and
3. Either of the following applies:

## Doing Business in the State of Utah

This is the most basic requirement. Having a physical presence in the state counts as doing business there, but so does selling goods or services online to Utah residents.

## At Least $25 Million in Annual Revenue

This requirement is unique to the UCPA. It’s worth noting that the $25 million figure refers to *all* gross revenue, not just revenue from Utah.

## Processing Requirements

For businesses that operate online, the 100K-consumer threshold is easier to meet than they may realize. Websites are processing personal data (IP address, cookies, etc.) from each of their visitors. Getting just 8,400 unique visitors from Utah per month will put them over 100,000 for the year.

# Exemptions

The UCPA lists several exemptions for certain types of organizations and personal data. These include:

- Governmental entities
- Nonprofit corporations
- Institutes of higher education
- Native American tribes
- Covered entities and business associates, as defined by HIPAA
- Financial institutions regulated by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
