Impactful Policy Frameworks
American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA, proposed)
The ADPPA is a proposed federal privacy law that would establish national standards for data privacy, including data minimization, consent requirements, and robust consumer rights over personal data.
This policy would significantly impact how agencies collect, process, and use consumer data for targeted advertising, requiring stricter compliance and potentially altering personalization strategies.
FTC Endorsement Guides (2023 Update)
The Federal Trade Commission updated its Endorsement Guides in 2023, clarifying disclosure requirements for influencers and advertisers, especially concerning material connections and misleading endorsements.
This policy directly affects influencer marketing and content creation, requiring clear and conspicuous disclosures, which impacts agency and brand compliance for award submissions.
California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA, 2023)
Effective January 1, 2023, the CPRA expands upon the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), granting consumers more control over their personal information and establishing the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA).
As a leading state-level privacy law, CPRA sets a high bar for data privacy practices for businesses operating in California, influencing ad targeting, data sharing, and requiring robust compliance efforts.
