CCPA
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) offers wide protection for the personal information of California residents, including rights to be informed of business privacy practices, to access, to delete personal information, and to deny third parties’ use of personal information. Compliance violations are punishable by fines of up to $7,500 per record plus the potential for class-action litigation.
CCPA Requirements
Organizations conducting business in California collecting personal information must:
- publish their privacy practices,
- disclose to consumers what personal information has been collected in the preceding 12 months,
- honor requests for deletion,
- and enable consumers to direct third parties not to use their personal information.

In the first six months of 2019, U.S. state legislatures or regulatory agencies have brought into force more consumer‑centric data protection laws than in all of 2018. Learn how these regulations impact your business.
