California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA)

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) gives consumers more control over the personal information that businesses collect about them and the CCPA regulations provide guidance on how to implement the law. This landmark law secures six (6) new privacy rights for California consumers, including:

  • The right to know the specific pieces and categories of personal information, the categories of sources from which a business collects about them, the purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing personal information, categories of third parties to whom personal information is disclosed;
  • The right to delete personal information collected from them (with some exceptions);
  • The right to opt-out of the sale and sharing of their personal data;
  • The right to opt-in to the sale of personal information of consumers under the age of 16 (if applicable);
  • The right to non-discrimination for exercising their CCPA rights; and
  • The right to initiate a private cause of action for data breaches.

The California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA), sometimes referred to as CCPA 2.0, expands on multiple provisions of the CCPA. A unique change in place by the CPRA is the creation of a brand-new administrative agency to help enforce and regulate privacy for Californians and make additional rules and guidelines under the CPRA. For consumers, CPRA provides stronger protection, giving them the right to further limit the use and disclosure of their information, including precise geolocation.
The CPRA creates two (2) additional rights for California consumers:

• The right to correct inaccurate personal information; and
• The right to limit use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.
