Impactful Policy Frameworks
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) - 2020 (and CPRA - 2023)
The CCPA grants California consumers new rights regarding their personal information, including the right to know what data is collected, to opt-out of sales, and to request deletion, with the CPRA expanding these rights and creating a new enforcement agency.
Retailers must invest in robust data governance, consent management, and data access tools, directly impacting Clientela's data capture and clienteling features.
American Innovation and Choice Online Act (AICOA) - Proposed
While not yet law, AICOA aims to curb anti-competitive practices by large tech platforms, potentially impacting how retailers integrate with and rely on major digital marketplaces and advertising channels.
This could foster a more level playing field for retailers and smaller tech providers, potentially increasing demand for independent solutions like Clientela that offer direct brand control.
Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA) - Virginia (2023)
Virginia's CDPA provides consumers with rights to access, delete, and opt-out of the sale of their personal data, similar to CCPA but with some differences in scope and enforcement.
Retailers operating in Virginia must ensure their data handling practices align with CDPA, influencing Clientela's compliance features and data management capabilities.
