The enforcement wing of California’s privacy agency is in full swing and engaged in 10 or more investigations of businesses that are suspected of not following the state’s privacy laws.
The enforcement division of the California Privacy Protection Agency, created a year ago, has launched investigations of businesses that number “in the double digits,” said Michael Macko, deputy director of enforcement at the CPPA, during a recent board meeting. The agency was created under the 2020 California Privacy Rights Act, which expanded privacy protections under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
