Let’s learn more about what CRRA is, why it matters, and how we can help your business.

What is the CPRA?

Let's pick this apart! The CPRA stands for California Privacy Rights Act. Think of it as an 'upgrade' to its predecessor – CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act). Passed on November 3, 2020 (became effective on January 1st, 2023 onward), this law extends additional rights and protections for the personal information of California residents.

It applies to businesses that do over $25,000,000 per year in business or businesses that buy, sell, or share the personal information of 100,000+ Californians.

CPRA introduced a new category of personal data branded as 'sensitive personal information.' Quite simply put - it's things like health information, precise geolocation, and social security numbers. Your business needs explicit consent to collect this type of information.

The CPRA also founded a government agency, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA). Acting like an online referee to regulate and assert privacy rights for residents. The agency has power over violations – they can investigate them and enforce heavy fines when needed.

Speaking of penalties, violating this law may incur administrative fines of up to $7500 per violation! If multiple consumers are affected within the same breach - well...these numbers multiply fast!

Overall, this law has allowed more control over user data while giving stronger consumer protection for Californians.

Why Does Complying with the CPRA Matter?

The CPRA is here to regulate and enforce rules – most importantly, it can enforce fines when those rules are broken! So why does complying with this law matter? Well, everyone needs regulations for safety—and in digital terms—that means user data protection.

For businesses operating within California or dealing with Californian customer information, ignoring these laws is like stepping into quicksand - it only leads one way: down!

The risk includes financial penalties, which can multiply quickly if multiple users get affected by the same breach. It wouldn't feel good owing the government fees amounting to potentially millions of dollars worth of damage due to non-compliance! Additionally, you may have to pay additional legal fees from people suing.

Moreover, compliance matters beyond merely avoiding fines and legal fees because it may also lend you an edge over the competition. It builds consumer trust and reputation along the journey towards a successful business story. When customers know their personal sensitive details are well protected, they inherently place more faith in your organization!

In summary, regardless of whether you're an internet giant or a small mom-and-pop shop, ensuring that you comply with the tough yet necessary standards set by the CPRA is vital. It safeguards your organization from legal penalties and reputational harm while building trust with customers always remains a high priority.
