What is CCPA Compliance?
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) went into effect in 2020 and requires businesses to give consumers certain rights and protections regarding their personal data. This includes disclosing what data is being collected, enabling individuals to opt-out of data collection practices, as well as giving customers the option of having their data deleted upon request. Failure to comply with the CCPA can result in significant financial penalties and damage to a business’s reputation. Additionally, CCPA Compliance is essential for building consumer trust and loyalty, as it shows that a business is taking data privacy seriously.
