California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a law that gives California residents greater control over their personal information held by businesses. It allows individuals to know what personal data is collected, to whom it is sold, and the right to request deletion of their data. Consumers can also opt out of having their information sold and can sue for certain privacy violations. Implemented in 2020, the CCPA aims to enhance privacy rights and consumer protection in the digital age, reflecting growing concerns about data privacy.
