California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA, 2020)
The CPRA expands upon the CCPA, granting consumers further rights over their personal data, including sensitive personal information, and establishes the California Privacy Protection Agency to enforce these rights.
Compliance with the CPRA requires AEF to update its data handling practices, impacting how student and user data are collected, stored, and used in academic and career development programs.
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, 2018)
The GDPR regulates the processing of personal data of individuals within the EU, imposing obligations on organizations regarding data security, consent, and individual rights.
GDPR compliance requires the AEF to ensure that its online resources and programs accessible to individuals in the EU adhere to strict data protection standards, influencing how user data is processed and consent is obtained.
FTC Act Section 5: Truth in Advertising (Ongoing)
The FTC Act prohibits unfair or deceptive advertising practices, requiring advertisers to be truthful and non-misleading in their claims, with ongoing enforcement actions to maintain transparency and ethical standards.
