Summary

The bill adds new privacy rules that force any business that gathers a consumer’s exact geolocation to show a detailed notice at the time of collection and to keep the data only as long as needed for the requested service, with a maximum of one year after the last interaction. It also amends the Education Code to require the State Department of Education to include county offices and charter schools in health‑screening programs and to promote reimbursement options for school‑based health and mental‑health services. The measures aim to protect personal privacy while improving pupil health services.
