CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) is a data privacy law enacted in California that grants residents more control over their personal information held by businesses. Effective since January 1, 2020, the CCPA requires companies to disclose what personal data they collect, how it is used, and with whom it is shared. It also gives consumers the right to access their data, request deletion of their data, and opt out of the sale of their data. The law aims to enhance privacy rights and consumer protection for California residents, with strict penalties for non-compliance, encouraging businesses to handle personal data transparently and responsibly.
