Fall 2020 Data Privacy Updates

By Rebecca Perry
November 01, 2020

If it feels like California has gotten a lot of attention for their data privacy laws lately, you certainly aren't wrong. Despite the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) going into effect in January of this year, the regulations weren't yet finalized until after full enforcement of the law began in July. In August, the California Attorney General's office made a surprise announcement that the regulations were final and in fully in effect. Then, a little over two months later, the people of California again voted on a significant privacy law, this time referred to as the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).

In this quarter's Data Privacy Update, we'll take a look at a few states that are pursuing privacy laws of their own or adding to their existing regulations. Two of those laws come from large states that cover a lot of business — one of which could have an impact on a similar scale to the CCPA.
