California voters passed the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) ballot initiative during the November 2020 election, amending and expanding the existing California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The new California state privacy law clarifies existing provisions of the CCPA, creates new consumer rights, imposes additional obligations on businesses that collect personal information from California consumers, and creates a new enforcement agency called the California Privacy Protection Agency.
