Capabilities / California Consumer Privacy Act
Helping clients understand and comply.
The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) took effect on January 1, 2020, and is notable both because it provides California residents with significant privacy-related rights and because it requires covered entities to undertake significant compliance efforts. The California Attorney General’s office is charged with enforcing the CCPA’s privacy-related rights and is authorized to seek statutory damages for violations. Private litigants are authorized to seek statutory damages for data breaches caused by a business’s failure to implement and maintain reasonable security procedures and practices.
