The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a data privacy law that outlines new standards for data collection – regulating how businesses are allowed to handle the personal information (PI) of California consumers and the rights that the latter can exercise over their data.
Processing of personal information may be lawful, fair, and transparent
Personal data can only be collected for legitimate purposes specified at the time it is gathered
You must designate a data controller who is tasked with demonstrating full GDPR compliance
Only what is necessary can be collected and it can only be stored for as long as it is needed for a specific purpose
All data that are stored must be accurate and up to date
Proper security, integrity, and confidentiality must be applied to all personal data processing
