What Will the California Consumer Privacy Act Actually Bring in 2020?
California’s passage of a landmark data privacy and protection law, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), has rightly drawn significant attention.
The law, which will become effective January 1, 2020, with enforcement delayed until the following July, grants new rights to California residents, including the right to access their information in a portable format and the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information.
This sweeping new legislation has already been amended once. Several other key proposed amendments, however, are still pending.
