# My Body, My Data Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** The My Body, My Data Act of 2025 would establish new federal privacy protections for sensitive health and reproductive information. While specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, the bill's title suggests it would regulate how companies collect, use, and share personal data related to individuals' bodies and health—particularly regarding reproductive health. The bill would likely give people greater control over their medical information and restrict how that data can be used by corporations and data brokers. **Who It Affects:** This legislation would impact all Americans, particularly those seeking reproductive healthcare services.
It would also affect technology companies, data brokers, health apps, and any businesses that collect or sell health-related personal information. **Current Status:** The bill (S 2029) was introduced in the 119th Congress by Senator Mazie K. Hirono (D-HI) and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full Senate.
