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 information and establishing the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) to enforce its provisions.
The CPRA increases compliance burdens for businesses, requiring more robust data handling, consent management, and data deletion capabilities.
New York Shield Act (SHIELD Act) 2020
The Stop Hacks and Improve Electronic Data Security Act (SHIELD Act), effective March 2020, mandates that businesses handling private information of New York residents implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards.
The SHIELD Act broadens the scope of data security requirements and breach notification obligations for entities operating in or with data from New York.
American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA) - Proposed
The ADPPA is a comprehensive federal privacy bill proposed in 2022 that aims to create a national standard for data privacy, superseding state laws and establishing new consumer rights and enforcement mechanisms.
If passed, the ADPPA would significantly standardize and potentially simplify the complex patchwork of U.S. data privacy laws, but would require substantial adjustments for businesses to align with new federal requirements.
