State Children's Privacy Law Tracker / North Dakota
North Dakota Children's Privacy Laws (2026)
No state kids-products law · current as of June 28, 2026
North Dakota has no state-level kids-products privacy or age-assurance law as of June 28, 2026. That doesn't mean nothing applies: the federal COPPA baseline governs data collected from children under 13 in every state, and a product shipped nationwide still has to meet the strictest state rules elsewhere. See the full tracker map for the national picture.
Also on the books (out of scope): HB 1561 — Commercial entity liability for publishing or distributing sexual material harmful to a minor (2025 adult-site age-verification law); signed Apr. 11, 2025, in effect since Aug. 1, 2025.; SB 2380 — Commercial entity liability for publishing or distributing sexual material harmful to a minor (companion 2025 adult-site age-verification law); signed Apr. 24, 2025, in effect since Aug. 1, 2025. — out-of-scope mandates (like adult-content age-gates) are tracked separately and don't set this state's status.
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.
