On December 23, 2024, the California Privacy Protection Agency announced two settlements with data brokers for failing to register and pay the annual fee required by California Senate Bill 362 (the Delete Act). PayDae, Inc. (doing business as Infillion) and The Data Group, LLC settled for $54,200 and $46,600 respectively, comprising the $200 daily fine for failing to register by the January 31 deadline. The CPPA has again opted to announce the settlements without publicly disclosing a complaint or settlement order.

These settlements represent the "third wave of enforcement activity" in as many months. On October 30, it announced an investigatory sweep into unregistered data brokers. Two weeks later, the agency disclosed its first two public enforcement actions: settlements with Growbots and UpLead for failing to register. Already known for its Friday afternoon announcements, the CPPA is developing a penchant for releasing enforcement updates shortly before holidays.
