No AI-specific law

West Virginia AI and Privacy Laws

West Virginia has no law setting AI rules for businesses or agencies, and no comprehensive consumer privacy law.

What the law says

Its AI statutes, from 2024 and 2025, create and update a state AI task force that studies AI and recommends policy. 2026 bills on AI media disclosure and AI in mental health care stayed in committee.

What this means for your organization

This state has no AI-specific rules for organizations yet. General consumer protection, civil rights, and privacy laws still apply to AI use, and federal rules and other states’ laws may reach you.

Our 2027 AI Governance Checklist covers the steps most organizations need, and our State AI Law Trackers explain the rules for specific industries.
