Maine AI and Privacy Laws
Maine has no broad AI law or comprehensive consumer privacy law.
What the law says
Since September 24, 2025, businesses must clearly disclose when a chatbot that could be mistaken for a human is not one, enforced under the Unfair Trade Practices Act.
A 2026 law bars offering therapy or psychotherapy through AI unless a licensed professional provides it, and another 2026 law covers synthetic media in campaign ads.

What this means for your organization
This state regulates specific uses of AI rather than AI in general. Check whether any of your AI uses fall into the categories above, such as chatbots, synthetic media, or AI in health coverage decisions, and remember that federal law and the laws of other states where you operate may also apply.
Our 2027 AI Governance Checklist covers the steps most organizations need, and our State AI Law Trackers explain the rules for specific industries.
