Enacted
Colorado AI Act
Colorado's 2024 high-risk AI law (risk-management programs, impact assessments) never took effect: it was delayed to June 30, 2026 and then repealed and reenacted by SB 26-189, signed May 14, 2026, as a narrower automated decision-making technology (ADMT) law. From January 1, 2027, developers must give deployers technical documentation (intended uses, training data categories, limitations) and deployers must notify consumers at the point of interaction, explain ADMT's role within 30 days after an adverse outcome, and offer data correction and meaningful human review. Impact-assessment and risk-management-program mandates were dropped; 3-year record retention remains.

Amended
Colorado Privacy Act (CPA)
Comprehensive privacy law giving Colorado consumers rights to access, correct, delete, port and opt out of targeted advertising, sale and certain profiling, with mandatory recognition of universal opt-out mechanisms and data protection assessments for high-risk processing. 2024 amendments added biometric identifier duties (July 1, 2025) and heightened protections for minors under 18 (Oct 1, 2025); 2025's SB 25-276 expanded precise geolocation rules and requires consent before selling sensitive data.
In effect since Jul 1, 2023
