About this Framework
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as significantly amended by Proposition 24 (CPRA — California Privacy Rights Act), grants California consumers enforceable rights over their personal information: right to know, delete, correct, opt-out of sale/sharing, and limit use of sensitive personal information (SPI). CPRA created the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) for dedicated enforcement, introduced data minimisation, purpose limitation and retention requirements. Businesses that intentionally violate the regulation face $7,500 per violation with the CPPA conducting proactive audit investigations.
