New Jersey Data Privacy Act for Auditors
What does New Jersey Data Privacy Act require of a Auditor?
The New Jersey Data Privacy Act (NJDPA) is a state privacy law enacted in 2024 that grants New Jersey residents rights over their personal data, including access, correction, deletion, and opt‑out of data selling, and imposes obligations on businesses handling personal information. Under New Jersey Data Privacy Act, which defines 35 controls, a Auditor's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.
