Late this week, the California Attorney General released much-anticipated proposed regulations implementing the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2020. Entities interested in commenting on the proposed regulations have until 5 p.m. PST on Dec. 6 to provide input. Public hearings giving interested individuals an opportunity to present statements will be held in California in early December. Information about dates, times, and locations is here.
“We are definitely moving in the right direction,” says Cynthia Cole, special counsel at the law firm Baker Botts, when asked whether the proposed rules provide a substantive roadmap for compliance with the CCPA.
