The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a privacy law that went into effect in California on January 1, 2020. The CCPA gives California consumers the right to request that businesses disclose what personal information they have collected about them, and to request that this information be deleted.

Under the CCPA, businesses are required to disclose what personal information they collect, why they collect it, and to whom they disclose it. They are also required to provide a mechanism for consumers to request that their personal information be deleted.

The CCPA applies to businesses that collect personal information from California consumers, and it applies to a wide range of personal information, including names, addresses, emails, and IP addresses. It also applies to businesses of any size, regardless of whether they are located in California or not.

The CCPA has significant implications for businesses that collect and use personal information from California consumers, and it has set a precedent for other states to adopt similar privacy laws. As a result, many businesses are reviewing and updating their privacy policies and practices to ensure compliance with the CCPA.
