Oklahoma consumer data privacy law (SB 546): minors' provisions

Coming

SB 546 (2026, Ch. 8), to be codified at 75A O.S. Sections 300 to 320

Enacted, not yet effective · Privacy law (minors) · effective 2027-01-01 · binds operators

Ages: Known children under 13 (COPPA); no separate teen band

Requires: A controller may not process a consumer's sensitive data without consent or, in the case of a 'known child' (the act defines a child as under 13), other than in accordance with COPPA; 'personal data collected from a known child' and precise geolocation data (a 1,750 foot radius) are both sensitive data, so processing either kind needs a documented data protection assessment for activities that begin on or after the effective date, and one assessment may cover a comparable set of similar activities (75A O.S. 300, 306, 309). A parent or legal guardian may exercise the child's access, correction, deletion, portability and opt-out rights, and complying with COPPA's verifiable parental consent requirements for data collected online satisfies any parental consent requirement under the act (75A O.S. 301, 316); there is no teen band and no minor-specific ban on targeted advertising or sale. Applies to controllers and processors that conduct business in Oklahoma or target a product or service to Oklahoma residents and that in a calendar year control or process personal data of at least 100,000 consumers, or at least 25,000 consumers while deriving over 50 percent of gross revenue from selling personal data (state agencies, nonprofits, higher education, HIPAA and GLBA entities are exempt). Enforced exclusively by the Attorney General after a 30 day written notice and cure period, with civil penalties up to $7,500 per violation and no private right of action.

Litigation: No challenge found: RECAP searches of the Oklahoma federal district courts and the Tenth Circuit for the bill number, Title 75A and consumer-data-privacy terms filed after 2026-03-20, and for NetChoice and CCIA filings after 2026-01-01, returned nothing.

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.
