Plain-English Summary

A claim under the Act's cause of action has to be filed within four years — measured from discovery of an unauthorized disclosure, using reasonable diligence, or from the date of a threat to disclose. Ordinary state tolling statutes apply on top of that deadline, except for one special rule.

That rule covers a depicted individual who was a minor when the disclosure or threat happened: for that person, the four-year clock doesn't start running at all until they reach the age of majority.
