The Federal Stored Communications Act protects all electronic communications that were transmitted via an electronic communication service, that are in electronic storage, and that are not public. However, it does not prevent an authorized person from sharing those communications with others. It also includes protections for the unauthorized access or disclosure of stored wire and electronic communications and transactional records. It applies to various types of electronic communications, not just private emails, and does not enable employers to see all electronic communications made by their employees. It primarily applies to government agencies and law enforcement, but also extends to some private entities.
