Impactful Policy Frameworks
California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) 2023
The CPRA expanded upon the CCPA, granting consumers more control over their personal information, including the right to correct inaccurate data and limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.
It significantly impacts Popular Marketing's data handling practices, requiring robust consent mechanisms, data mapping, and strict adherence to consumer data requests, especially concerning lead generation and list management.
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) Enforcement
The FTC continues to enforce COPPA, requiring online services directed at children under 13 to obtain parental consent before collecting personal information and adhering to strict data handling rules.
Popular Marketing must ensure its campaigns and publisher network meticulously avoid targeting or collecting data from children under 13, especially for mobile app installs or online services, to prevent severe penalties.
Digital Services Act (DSA) (EU) 2024
Although an EU regulation, the DSA imposes broad transparency and accountability obligations on online platforms, including targeted advertising, and could influence global regulatory trends.
While not direct US law, the DSA sets a precedent for stricter advertising transparency and content moderation, potentially influencing US regulatory bodies and requiring Popular Marketing to adapt its global data and advertising practices for EU-based campaigns and partners.
