CCPA
California data regulation
CCPA stands for California Consumer Privacy Act, a 2018 law giving California residents rights over their personal data.
It requires businesses to disclose what information they collect and allows consumers to request deletion of their data or opt out of its sale.
The website added a "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link to comply with CCPA.
The law influenced similar privacy legislation nationwide.
