CCPA

Definition

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a state statute intended to enhance privacy rights and consumer protection for residents of California, USA. Enacted in 2018, it grants California residents the right to know what personal data is being collected about them, to whom it is sold, and the ability to access, delete, and opt-out of the sale of their personal information. The CCPA applies to businesses that meet certain criteria, such as having annual gross revenues over $25 million, handling the personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, or earning more than half of their annual revenue from selling consumers’ personal information.
