As the first law of its kind in the United States, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) marks a watershed in the history of consumer privacy protections. The CCPA provides individuals general rights of notice, access, and control over their personal information, and requires thousands of businesses to implement new processes for compliance, as well as new approaches to the collection and use of personal information.
In writing California Consumer Privacy Act Annotated, Scott W. Pink has accomplished the difficult work of analyzing this complex law and organizing it into concrete practical components. With incisive discussion, practice tips, and sample forms, the author provides step-by-step guidance through each requirement of the CCPA, including:
The types of businesses that are subject to the law
The persons that are protected by the law
The personal information that is covered
The information and businesses that are exempt
The rights that California residents can exercise
The obligations of businesses to comply with consumer requests
