Cracking the CCPA Code video series

California’s Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) was inspired by some of the same principles as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”). If your business has done work to comply with the GDPR—such as implementing certain processes—that work likely will benefit your CCPA compliance efforts, but it will not be enough, by itself, to comply with the CCPA. MoFo Privacy + Data Security Partner Chris Lyon explains this in the final episode of our “Cracking the CCPA Code” series. #CrackingtheCCPACode

The CCPA imposes special requirements on businesses that want to sell the personal information of individuals 16-years-old and younger. These requirements apply only if the business has “actual knowledge” of the individual’s age. But the CCPA doesn’t define “actual knowledge,” so where should businesses look for guidance? MoFo Privacy + Data Security partner Julie O’Neill explains in a new episode of our “Cracking the CCPA Code” series. #CrackingtheCCPACode

The CCPA allows consumers whose information was accessed without their authorization to sue the business that facilitated the breach by failing to adopt appropriate security measures. But the act grants such causes of action only when certain kinds of personal information are disclosed to unauthorized parties as a result of specific types of data security events. MoFo Privacy + Data Security partner Purvi G. Patel explains in a new episode of our “Cracking the CCPA Code” series. #CrackingtheCCPACode

The CCPA provides consumers with the right to request a business to disclose information that it has collected about them. How must businesses make it possible for consumers to make these requests? Why must businesses explore practical, privacy-protective methods for verifying these requests? What may a business do with information it collects through those verification processes? MoFo Privacy + Data Security partner Purvi G. Patel explains in a new episode of our “Cracking the CCPA Code” series. #CrackingtheCCPACode

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) exception of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is particularly relevant to financial institutions, but it doesn’t exempt financial institutions from the CCPA’s privacy obligations entirely. Moreover, the GLBA exception does not prohibit a person or entity from pursuing the private cause of action established by the CCPA for certain data security events, even if the data involved is subject to the GLBA. MoFo Privacy + Data Security Partner Nate Taylor explains in a new episode of our “Cracking the CCPA Code” series. #CrackingtheCCPACode
