After a successful appeal of a June ruling, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) is authorized to begin immediate enforcement of privacy regulations developed, and expanded, under the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA). Any company that has been relying on the nine-month enforcement delay is now required to implement the polices and regulations required by the CPRA to avoid penalization by the CPPA.
History
In the fall of 2020, California voters passed CPRA that created the CPPA, a newly established agency set out to implement and enforce new privacy consumer protections. The agency intended to adopt its final regulations by July 1, 2022, with enforcement to begin on July 1, 2023.
