Impactful Policy Frameworks
American Innovation and Choice Online Act (AICOA, proposed)
This proposed federal legislation aims to curb the market power of large tech platforms by preventing self-preferencing and discriminatory practices against smaller businesses.
If passed, AICOA could reduce the dominance of large social media platforms, potentially creating a more level playing field for niche professional networks like Workweek to attract users and advertisers.
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA, 1998, updated 2013)
COPPA imposes requirements on operators of websites or online services directed to children under 13 years of age, or who have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information from children under 13.
While Workweek targets professionals, content creators on its platform must be mindful of COPPA compliance if their content could inadvertently attract or be accessible to a child audience, particularly in areas like 'memes' or broader 'media' verticals.
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA, 2018, amended by CPRA 2020)
The CCPA (as amended by CPRA) grants California consumers extensive rights regarding their personal information, including the right to know, delete, and opt-out of the sale or sharing of their data.
Workweek must ensure robust data privacy practices and transparency regarding data collection and usage, particularly for its business intelligence tools, to comply with CCPA/CPRA and maintain user trust.
