Arizona Children's Privacy Laws (2026)

2 laws & bills tracked · overall: Pending · current as of June 28, 2026

Arizona has 2 tracked children's privacy laws and bills — each listed below with its status, the ages it covers, litigation posture, and a link to the official primary source. For the interactive view, open Arizona in the tracker map.

HB 2920 — Software applications; minors; requirements (App Store Accountability Act) · HB 2920 (2026, 57th Leg., 2nd Reg. Sess.)

Pending — A bill was introduced this cycle but is not yet law. · App store · effective Was to be · binds app stores, developers

Ages: Minors (under 18); age-category verification with parental consent for minors.

Requires: Would have required app store providers to request and verify the age category of every account holder, affiliate a minor's account with a parent account, and obtain verifiable parental consent before each download, app purchase, or in-app purchase by a minor; developers would have had to verify age-category data via the app store's data-sharing methods and confirm parental consent. Enforced as consumer fraud (private right of action, min. $1,000/violation; AG civil penalties up to $75,000/violation).

Litigation: None. The bill never became law, so there is no injunction or active litigation against it. (Prior pass's 'LIT' flag was incorrect and is removed.)

Primary source

HB 2991 — Social media; online content; minors · HB 2991 (2026, 57th Leg., 2nd Reg. Sess.)

Pending — A bill was introduced this cycle but is not yet law. · Social media · binds operators, platforms

Ages: Minors under 14 (parental consent to contract); 14-15 (parental approval); platform defined by >=10% of U.S. DAU under 16.

Requires: Would have barred a social media platform from forming an account-holder contract with a minor under 14 without parent/guardian consent, required parental approval for 14- and 15-year-olds, and given parents and minors mechanisms to terminate accounts and delete personal data. (A separate, severable provision required adult-content sites with >1/3 'sexual material harmful to minors' to verify visitors are 18+ — that provision is out of scope and dropped.)

Litigation: None. The bill never became law, so there is no injunction or active litigation against it. (NetChoice has enjoined analogous social-media age laws in other states, but not this Arizona bill, which never took effect. Prior pass's 'LIT' flag was incorrect and is removed.)

Primary source

Also on the books (out of scope): HB 2112 (2025, Ch. 193) — Internet pornography; minors; age verification; HB 2991 adult-content age-verification provision — the severable 18+ age-gate for sites/apps with >1/3 'material harmful to minors'; the bill is tracked only for its social-media provisions. — out-of-scope mandates (like adult-content age-gates) are tracked separately and don't set this state's status.

Federal · COPPAapplies here too

Regardless of state law, COPPA governs personal information collected from children under 13: notice, verifiable parental consent, data minimization, and — under the 2025 amended Rule — limits on retention and third-party sharing.

How Arizona compares

Not legal advice. I build products for a living; I'm not a lawyer. Compiled from primary sources and reviewed monthly as part of the State Children's Privacy Law Tracker; AI-assisted research, verified against each law's official source — but laws and injunctions change fast, so confirm the latest before relying on it.
