## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read

- Vendors must protect Iowa state data: benefit, low. Covered contracts entered into or renewed on or after July 1, 2026, treat state data as the state's exclusive property. Vendors may use it only for contracted services and must follow state data-protection policies. Aggregated or deidentified information used for internal analysis is excluded from…
- Iowa ranks projects and extends technology funding: benefit, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, the Department of Management directs technology fund money toward new projects and replacement infrastructure, with privacy protections. Unused money remains available through the fiscal year ending two years after its original funding year; earnings stay in the fund. The de…
- Iowa ends yearly technology fund payment: cost, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, Iowa ends an annual $17.5 million general fund payment to the Technology Reinvestment Fund. The payment was scheduled for the budget year starting July 1, 2026, and each year afterward. This removes a recurring funding source, not the technology fund itself. The law does not…
- Iowa centralizes criminal justice data analysis: mixed, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, the Department of Management serves as Iowa's Statistical Analysis Center, consolidating earlier analysis duties. It may link agency data to study criminal justice and track juveniles and adults charged with crimes across programs. Required record access covers courts, abuse…
- Iowa shields cybersecurity incident communications: mixed, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, security-incident communications involving Iowa's chief information security officer, and documents created from them, are confidential. They generally cannot be released through public-records requests or used in proceedings. The officer may disclose information for specifi…
- More frequent checks for technology workers: mixed, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, covered workers face national criminal history checks at least every five years, instead of every 10. This covers people working for the Department of Management and technology staff at supported entities, not all Iowa residents. An additional check may be requested when the…
- Record requests go to responsible agencies: mixed, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, the Department of Management must deny requests for records it only processes or stores for another agency. It must direct requesters to the agency legally responsible for those records and help that agency produce them. Its decision is presumed valid unless challenged with…
- Iowa raises agency transfer limits with safeguards: mixed, low. Beginning July 1, 2026, annual transfers into a non-entitlement budget line may reach 100% of its enacted amount, up from 50%. Transfers require the governor's approval, the same funding source, and the same fiscal year. They also remain subject to a 0.1% limit based on total appropriations from th…
- Stronger safeguards in Iowa technology contracts: mixed, low. Covered state technology contracts entered into or renewed on or after July 1, 2026, must use Iowa law and Iowa courts. Prohibited terms are void, including secret pricing, binding arbitration, jury-trial waivers, unknown or one-sided term changes, and state promises to cover vendor liability. Rest…
