About this talk

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 became effective on January 1, 2020 and has effectively become the data protection standard for the United States. However, the Act’s implementation has resulted in numerous ambiguities and has raised a host of questions: What elements of the Act are enforceable by private parties? When will the Attorney General begin issuing fines? How does a business “cure” a breach? The uncertainties surrounding the Act seem almost endless and U.S. businesses are having to make commitments now, often with little guidance. In this highly interactive webcast, a data protection industry veteran will answer your most pressing questions and share the latest updates from the California state government. Key takeaways include: -Insight into what qualifies as a “sale” -Perspective on how the CCPA Regulations have expanded the scope of the Act -Analysis of the upcoming California Privacy Rights and Enforcement Act About the speaker: Scott M.
