At Apideck, we meet the highest bars possible for data privacy, as well as support organizations using Apideck while meeting data privacy obligations across the globe.
What is CCPA?
"The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a California state law that enhances privacy rights and consumer protections for California residents. It regulates what businesses are allowed to do with the personal information they collect from California residents.
The CCPA aims to put data rights back into the hands of consumers. Consumer will now be able to understand how their data is actually being used. They will now have a saying in how and with which third parties their data can be shared. The CCPA is aimed at enforcing protection and privacy of personal and customer data.
Does Apideck need to Comply with CCPA?
No, we don't need to comply because we're not selling personal information.
Just like with the GDPR, one should not underestimate the global impact of the CCPA. Any organisation globally that collects personal data of California residents and households should validate whether they are required to comply with the CCPA.
Any organisation that meets one of the following three criteria annually:
- Earn revenues greater than $25 million.
- Buy, receive, sell or share the personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, households or devices for commercial purposes.
- Derive 50 percent of annual revenues from selling consumers’ personal information.
