SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act; consumer protection. Makes several amendments to the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) (§ 59.1-501.1 et seq.) and the Virginia Consumer Protection Act (VCPA) (§ 59.1-196 et seq.). The bill changes UCITA's references to other laws or rules to other statutes, administrative rules, regulations or procedures where applicable. The bill also changes references to the VCPA to other consumer protection statutes, administrative rules or regulations including, but not limited to, the VCPA. The bill provides that a mass-market license may be transferred if such transfer involves making a gift or donation of a computer along with mass-market software to a public school, a public library, a charity or a consumer. The bill amends the definition of "goods" as used in the VCPA to include "computer information" and "informational rights" as defined in UCITA.
