What is CCPA?
CCPA stands for California Consumer Privacy Act, a California State law from 2018 that gives Californian consumers more control over the information that businesses collect about them. From this act, consumers can learn how businesses use and share their personal information and can opt-out and delete collected data.
All businesses must make it clear how they keep client’s privacy.
Why is CCPA compliance important?
If on one side the CCPA makes it harder to get consumers’ information, on the other hand, businesses will collect more precise data. This allows you to rethink your marketing strategy and improve your content with better segmentation.
Not only to improve your marketing strategy though. Being CCPA compliant helps your business to gain the trust of the prospects since they now know that their personal information is granted a high-level security system.
