Summary

The bill updates Utah’s Electronic Information Privacy Act, requiring police to obtain a court warrant before accessing location data, stored data, or transmitted electronic information. It also prohibits agencies from hiring outside firms to obtain that data in ways the agency itself could not. Violations mean the data and any evidence derived from it can be excluded in court.
