While reputation and consumer privacy are the biggest drivers for CCPA compliance, only 55% of companies plan to be ready by the law’s Jan. 1, 2020 effective date, according to the OneTrust and the IAPP research.
The CCPA is the first of its kind U.S. consumer privacy law which broadly expands the data protection and privacy rights of California residents. The law, inspired by the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), requires organizations that do businesses in the state to undertake significant operational reform to meet the increased obligations of handling California consumer personal data.
