Training course outline

The CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) is a California data protection law that came into effect on January 1, 2020. Following the passing of Prop 24, the CPRA (California Privacy Rights Act) will take effect officially on January 1, 2023 and replace the CCPA. The CPRA is widely viewed as California’s version of the EU’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).

Just like the GDPR, it gives people more control over their personal data, and holds businesses more accountable for protecting the data they collect and process.

Once you have completed the California Consumer Privacy Act Foundation Online Training course, you will be able to:

  • Demonstrate an understanding of privacy and cybersecurity law concepts, and basis of national/state jurisdiction 
  • Define terms used in the CCPA/CPRA and contrast to the GDPR 
  • Articulate the rights of consumers, and determine the duties of a business 
  • Examine the CPRA’s security requirements and prepare relevant responses 
  • Use the CPRA to determine what action(s) should be taken in the event of a breach 
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the CPRA’s penalty provisions

On the first anniversary of #GDPR, Microsoft calls for a similar privacy law in the US that puts the burden on the companies that collect and use sensitive data.

Europe’s privacy law went into effect nearly a year ago. It’s time for the US to catch up, the tech giant says.

   ⚖️ California is bringing law and order to big data ⚖️

California Expands Consumer Privacy Protections | The California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA, gives residents of California the ability to request the data that businesses collect on them, demand that it be deleted, and opt out of having that data sold to third parties, among other things.

The state’s attorney general wants to avoid a troubled rollout, à la Obamacare, when the far-reaching restrictions on user data go into effect on Jan. 1.
