§ 59.1-442. Sale of purchaser information; notice required
No merchant, without giving notice to the purchaser, shall sell to any third person information which concerns the purchaser and which is gathered in connection with the sale, rental or exchange of tangible personal property to the purchaser at the merchant's place of business. Notice required by this section may be by the posting of a sign or any other reasonable method. If requested by a purchaser not to sell such information, the merchant shall not do so. No merchant shall sell any information gathered solely as the result of any customer payment by personal check, credit card, or where the merchant records the customer's driver's license number.
For the purposes of this section "merchant" means any person or entity engaged in the sale of goods from a fixed retail location in Virginia.
