Legislation addressing specific types of sensitive data is found within various U.S. laws, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.

What Is Tracking and Monitoring Law?
Tracking and monitoring law is related to the rights of individuals and often addressed through state legislation. Tracking law looks at when and how individuals can be tracked through GPS devices and location services. Employers have the right to track company vehicles through GPS devices but cannot track an employee’s vehicle in many states without employee consent. (A written policy on tracking and monitoring may be required, with the policies stating a business purpose for the activities.) Tracking apps on mobile phones can continue to broadcast an employee’s location even after work hours. That is why companies must ensure they are satisfying employees’ expectations of privacy.

Passed in 1998 and implemented in 2000, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) updated U.S. law to meet the requirements of international copyright treaties. The DMCA addresses challenging issues relating to uses of copyrighted material in the digital environment: it limits the liability of online service providers that meet certain conditions, while providing certain procedures for addressing online infringement; it prohibits circumvention of digital technologies that control or limit access to copyrighted works; and it prohibits the removal or modification of certain types of copyright management information contained in protected works. Title II of the DMCA (sometimes also referred to as the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act, or OCILLA) is codified at Section 512, Title 17, of the United States Code.
