Monday, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra submitted of the Final Regulations under the California
Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) to the California Office of
Administrative Law (OAL). Under the California Administrative
Procedure Act (APA), the OAL has 30 business days plus 60 calendar
days (due to a COVID-related executive order) to determine whether
the regulations meet the requirements of the APA. This final
submission comes after various public forums, hearings, commentary,
and revisions to the regulations.
Back in April,
we discussed our expectations for the Final Regulations, which remain largely unchanged from the
March 11, 2020 draft. In that post, we assessed certain elements of
the Regulations that seemed to be in flux, such as notice at
collection, financial incentives, consumer opt-out rights, and the
handling of requests to know and delete.
