California's Privacy Protection Agency advances significant amendments to CCPA regulations that would formally recognize the Global Privacy Control, expand opt-out preference signal requirements, and impose new reporting obligations on businesses engaged in digital advertising. The proposed changes address perceived gaps in current privacy protections and could substantially impact how companies handle consumer data across devices and browsers.

Overview

On November 6, 2026, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CalPrivacy) Board heard its staff’s recommendations regarding amendments to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) regulations primarily related to opt-out preference signals (OOPS).

The proposed amendments would expressly recognize the Global Privacy Control (GPC) as an opt-out preference signal, prohibit browser features that interfere with OOPS, extend identity verification for rights requests to automated decision-making technology (ADMT) appeals, expand business obligations for reporting rights request metrics, add illustrative examples fleshing out OOPS applicability, and make minor but important changes to the cyber audit and risk assessment certifications.
