Movable Ink's Commitment to CCPA
If you’re looking for information on CCPA and what Movable Ink has done to comply, you’ve come to the right place. The following CCPA Q&A will help you do just that.
What is the CCPA?
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives consumers residing in California more control over the personal information that businesses collect about them and grants them GDPR-like rights of deletion, access, portability, as well as a right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information. The CCPA took effect on January 1, 2020, with enforcement beginning July 1, 2020.The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), a ballot measure that was approved by California voters on Nov. 3, 2020, significantly amends and expands the CCPA, and it is sometimes referred to as “CCPA 2.0.”The CPRA took effect on Dec. 16, 2020, but most of the provisions revising the CCPA became “operative” on Jan. 1, 2023, at which point the CPRA rights and obligations will cover employee and business data, in addition to service data. Among other things, the CPRA (i) creates a category for “sensitive personal information” and a corresponding consumer’s right to limit the use of such information (ii) adds a consumer’s right to opt out of the sharing of their personal information with third parties for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising and (iii) requires businesses collecting personal information from consumers to clearly inform them when they employ automated decision-making technology.
To Whom Does the CCPA Apply?
The CCPA applies to for-profit businesses that do business in California and meet any of the following:
- Have a gross annual revenue of over $25 million;
- Buys, “sells” or “shares” the personal information of 100,000 California residents or households; or
- Derive 50% or more of their annual revenue from selling California residents’ personal information.
