Discover CCPA California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives California residents more control over their personal information.

Understanding the CCPA

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a landmark privacy law that grants California residents more control over their personal information. Effective since January 1, 2020, the CCPA gives consumers the right to know what personal information is being collected about them, the right to access and delete this information, and the right to opt out of the sale of their information. The law applies to businesses that meet certain criteria, such as having annual gross revenues exceeding $25 million, collecting or selling the personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, households, or devices, or deriving 50% or more of their annual revenues from selling consumers' personal information. The CCPA also requires covered businesses to provide notice to consumers about their data collection practices and to implement and maintain reasonable security procedures to protect consumer data.
