California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) was the first comprehensive consumer privacy law in the United States, in effect since 2020 and broadened in 2023 by the California Privacy Rights Act. It lets Californians see, correct, and delete the personal information businesses collect about them and opt out of its sale or sharing, and it remains the only state law backed by a dedicated regulator, the California Privacy Protection Agency.
