California often leads the US in codifying privacy protections, including becoming the first US state to enact a comprehensive consumer privacy law, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended by the voter-approved California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA) (collectively, CCPA).

The CCPA grants California residents certain rights regarding their personal information and imposes various data protection duties on businesses collecting or handling California residents' personal information, when they meet certain thresholds. California's laws also provide residents with a variety of other privacy and cybersecurity protections, such as data breach notification requirements and heightened protections for medical information.

This toolkit provides resources designed to help counsel understand and meet California's various privacy law requirements.
