Is Reverse Phone Lookup Legal in Washington?
Yes. Washington has no comprehensive consumer data privacy law of the CCPA/VCDPA type. The My Health My Data Act (SHB 1155, 2023) is a sector-specific health-data law and does not apply to phone lookup services. Unlike neighboring Oregon (OR-CPA, effective July 1, 2024), Washington residents have no general privacy opt-out rights for lookup databases. Federal FCRA protections apply statewide: misusing lookup results for employment, tenant, or credit screening is prohibited in Washington as in every other state.
