What it requires
Before using ADMT for a significant decision, businesses must provide consumers with a Pre-use Notice informing them about the business's use of ADMT and consumers' rights to opt-out of ADMT and to access ADMT. Section 7200(b) phases this in: a business that uses ADMT for a significant decision before January 1, 2027, including a use first deployed during 2026, must have its Pre-use Notice in place no later than January 1, 2027. A business that begins such use on or after that date must present the notice at or before the point it collects the personal information it plans to process with ADMT, or, for personal information already collected for a different purpose, before processing it with ADMT (§ 7220(b)(2)).
