What it does
The SLASH Prices Act would require businesses to disclose when they use personalized algorithmic pricing—charging different prices based on a consumer’s personal data—and provide a clear opt-out mechanism. It prohibits discrimination against consumers who opt out and mandates that disclosures be prominently displayed alongside prices. The bill exempts certain practices like insurance, credit, dynamic pricing without personal data, and location-based pricing for ride-shares or tax calculations, and enforcement would be handled by the Federal Trade Commission.
