AB 1833: Consumer Driving Data Protection Act of 2026.

The bill aims to protect consumers' driving data and promote fair insurance practices. It allows consumers to opt-in to use telematics to establish their driving record, which would then be used to determine their insurance rates. The bill prohibits the use of telematics data for purposes other than rating private passenger automobile insurance. Insurers are required to obtain explicit consent from consumers before collecting and using telematics data. The bill also sets out specific requirements for insurers' telematics programs, including the materials that must be included in rate applications and the conditions under which discounts can be offered.
