FPF Unveils Paper on State Data Minimization Trends
June 5, 2025
Today, the Future of Privacy Forum (FPF) published a new paper—Data Minimization’s Substantive Turn: Key Questions & Operational Challenges Posed by New State Privacy Legislation. Data minimization is a bedrock principle of privacy and data protection law, with origins in the Fair Information Practice Principles (FIPPs) and the Privacy Act of 1974. At a high level, data minimization prohibits a covered entity from collecting, using, or retaining more personal data than is necessary to accomplish an identified, lawful purpose.
