What the sources say

The Minnesota source records on this page do not expressly establish a general SMS or MMS rule. They are included because related telemarketing, do-not-call, privacy, or consumer-protection requirements may still matter to a messaging program.

How this authority relates to messaging

This source is relevant to the broader program, but the recorded text does not expressly establish general SMS or MMS coverage.

What the source establishes

  • Rights, transparency, consent for sensitive data, controller/processor duties, and complaint/enforcement workflows should already be in production if Minnesota residents are in scope.

Limits and important context

  • Minnesota AG resources identify the law, explain consumer rights, and note that the AG’s temporary warning-letter mechanism ended in early 2026. Material for nationwide messaging programs because Minnesota is now live and no longer in its initial warning-letter grace period. The especially important current-status point is that the AG’s temporary warning program ended January 31, 2026. Effective July 31, 2025. Strongest surfaced official source is the Minnesota AG privacy-law guidance. Effective July 31, 2025; the warning-letter period ended January 31, 2026.
