You are likely aware of headlines spreading the news of a recent Superior Court of California decision that has delayed the enforcement of the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”) regulations until March 29, 2024. However, while the enforcement of the regulations has been delayed until March of next year, the CPRA itself remains in effect (since January 1, 2023) and is enforceable.
On June 30, 2023—the eve of the July 1, 2023 enforcement date of the CPRA regulations—a California state court judge granted an injunction delaying enforcement of the CPRA regulations until March 29, 2024. The court found that the regulations could not be enforced on July 1, 2023 because this did not give the adequate one-year notice from March 29, 2023, when the regulations were published. See Cal.
