My Body, My Data Act of 2025
Latest action (11 Jun 2025): Introduced
What this bill does
The My Body, My Data Act of 2025 would establish federal privacy protections for personal reproductive or sexual health information, such as data related to pregnancy, menstruation, contraception use, fertility, and related medical care, including information inferred from other data. Covered businesses—termed "regulated entities"—would be required to collect, retain, use, or disclose such information only when strictly necessary to provide a product or service the individual requested, and to limit employee and service-provider access accordingly. The bill also creates individual rights to access, correct, and delete this information, requires companies to publish a detailed privacy policy, and prohibits retaliation against people who exercise these rights.
The law would primarily affect companies handling reproductive or sexual health data, such as period-tracking apps, retailers, and other online services, but exempts entities already covered by HIPAA medical privacy rules or certain substance-use-disorder record protections. Individuals would gain new tools to find out what data is held about them and to demand its correction or deletion. The Federal Trade Commission would enforce the law as an unfair or deceptive practice, and individuals could also sue directly, with statutory damages, punitive damages, and attorney's fees available; pre-dispute arbitration clauses and class-action waivers would not apply to these claims. State laws offering greater protection would not be preempted.
The bill was introduced in the Senate on June 11, 2025, by Senator Mazie Hirono with multiple cosponsors, and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. It has not yet received a committee vote, floor vote, or further action.
