As of October 8, 2026, the District of Columbia has not enacted a generally applicable comprehensive private-sector consumer privacy statute comparable to the comprehensive privacy laws currently effective in many states.

The District of Columbia Government Data Privacy and Protection Act of 2026, Bill 26-670, concerns District government agencies and remained pending during 2026 rather than establishing a CCPA-style private-business privacy regime.

Because another participant may be located in a jurisdiction requiring all-party consent, additional notice or consent may be required.
