California Consumer Privacy Act

In June 2018, California passed the "California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018" (or AB 375). The law is scheduled to go into effect January 1, 2020, however, it may be subject to legislative changes brought on by internet and tech companies. It will essentially give the residents of California 1) the right to know the data businesses are collecting on them 2) the right to modify or delete their data or opt-out of it being shared and 3) the right to action under a data breach. The privacy law is the first of its kind in the US. Here are a few more links on the matter:
