Ensure You’re Within CCPA Compliance
The law and its regulations are long and complex, but have some key items to be aware of:
- California Residents have the right to access their data, correct their data, delete their data, transfer their data, and opt-out of the sale or sharing of their data.
- Businesses covered under the law must honor the ability of residents to exercise their rights within a specified time frame and provide proper notices to consumers in key areas as defined by the law.
- Businesses are subject to key documentation requirements, including required training, risk assessments, cybersecurity evaluations, and in some cases, transparency disclosures.

What Kind of CCPA Penalties Could I Get?
The law and the related regulations are presently enforced by the California Attorney General. This changes in 2023, when enforcement powers transfer to the California Privacy Protection Agency (read more here). Regardless of the enforcement body, fines for the CCPA can be up to $7,500 per violation, and settlements may include multi-year compliance orders.
As of January 1, 2023, California will no longer issue Cure Notices, placing businesses at increased risk of legal action.
