California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)

The California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) is a law requiring websites and online services that collect personal information from California residents to clearly disclose their privacy practices. This includes posting a privacy policy that explains what data is collected, how it is used, and with whom it is shared. The law aims to give users transparency and control over their personal information online. CalOPPA applies to both commercial and non-commercial sites and mandates that privacy policies be accessible from the homepage and updated regularly.
