Impactful Policy Frameworks
California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) 2023
The CPRA, effective January 1, 2023, expands upon the CCPA, granting consumers more control over their personal data, including the right to correct inaccurate information and opt-out of sharing sensitive personal information.
This policy increases the complexity of data handling and targeting strategies for digital advertising agencies, requiring robust data governance and consent mechanisms.
Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) 2023
Effective January 1, 2023, the VCDPA grants Virginia consumers rights similar to CCPA/CPRA, including access, deletion, and opt-out rights for personal data processing by businesses.
Agencies must ensure compliance across different state regulations, potentially necessitating a 'privacy by design' approach for all data collection and advertising campaigns.
Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) 2023
The CPA, effective July 1, 2023, provides Colorado residents with rights regarding their personal data, including opting out of targeted advertising and the sale of personal data.
The CPA's broad definition of 'sale' and 'targeted advertising' impacts how digital agencies collect, process, and utilize consumer data for ad placement and personalization.
