Privacy Rights Clearinghouse and Coalition support AB 566 to make it easier to exercise your privacy rights

Exercising your privacy rights can unfortunately be an unnecessarily arduous task. That's why we're proud to stand with a coalition of civil society, consumer protection and privacy advocates supporting Assembly Bill 566, a bill that would require browsers and mobile operating systems to include a setting that enables a consumer to send an opt-out preference signal. 

While California consumers enjoy the right to send legally binding opt-out preference signals, major browsers like Chrome, Safari, and Edge, as well as the Android and iOS mobile platforms, have suppressed usage of this right by denying native opt-out preference signal functionality. This bill is vital to ensure that millions of Californians have a practical way to manage their privacy choices under the California Consumer Privacy Act.
