LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2147, as amended, Melendez. State government Internet
Web sites: information practices.
Existing law prescribes the procedures for state agencies to
follow in the collection, maintenance, and dissemination of personal
information, as defined, in order to protect the privacy of

personal information in a manner that would link the information

agency, as defined, that uses an Internet Web site to obtain
information by means of an electronic form and shares that
information with another state agency or private party
to include a specified disclosure notice clearly displayed in
direct proximity above the button used to submit the form. The
disclosure would acknowledge that the information is being collected
and may be shared. The bill would also prohibit a state
entity agency using an electronic form, as
described above, to utilize or share any information provided on
the form until the person entering information into the form
specifically acts to submit the form.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
