Implementation Guidance

Oklahoma's Consumer Data Privacy Act (SB 546, signed March 20, 2026) takes effect January 1, 2027. It follows the opt-out (Virginia-style) model and does NOT require honoring universal opt-out mechanisms such as GPC. Controllers that sell personal data or use it for targeted advertising must clearly and conspicuously disclose how consumers can opt out, so provide that opt-out via your privacy page or preference center. 'Sale' is limited to exchanges for monetary consideration. The Attorney General has exclusive enforcement authority with a permanent 30-day cure period and civil penalties of up to $7,500 per violation; there is no private right of action. Honoring GPC remains a recommended best practice.
