The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides California residents with rights regarding their personal information, including the right to know, delete, and opt out of the sale of their data. The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) expands these rights and introduces additional protections, such as the right to correct inaccurate data and limit the use of sensitive personal information.
Under these laws, a California data privacy attorney may help you request disclosures from companies or file complaints if a business fails to meet its obligations. The CPRA also empowers a relatively new enforcement agency, expanding accountability across industries.
A data breach is a cyber attack where private and protected information is leaked from a system by an unauthorized party. A breach can expose these types of confidential information:
Any information stored in a particular system is at risk of a breach. Malicious actors target systems that provide large stores of sensitive data.

Our team of California data breach lawyers can help you explore available remedies if your information was compromised due to negligent security practices.
California’s data privacy law, encompassing the CCPA and CPRA, grants residents control over their personal information, providing rights to access, delete, and opt out of data sale, while adding provisions on correction and limiting the use of sensitive data.
These protections extend to a wide range of personal data collected both online and offline. A California data privacy attorney can assess whether a business is subject to data privacy laws and advise you on issuing a notice of violation or pursuing civil penalties when appropriate.
California’s data protection laws, primarily through the CCPA and the CPRA, collectively establish a comprehensive framework that empowers residents with significant control over their personal information, including rights to access, correct, delete, and opt-out of the sale or sharing of their data, while imposing strict obligations on businesses regarding data collection, processing, and security, and introducing specific protections for sensitive personal information, thereby setting a precedent for robust privacy practices in the United States.
California data protection lawyers also assist in holding companies accountable when systems are breached due to inadequate safeguards. Reach out to one of our California data privacy lawyers to discuss your rights and potential claims under state privacy laws.
