California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is a state law requiring any commercial website or app collecting personal information from California residents to conspicuously post a privacy policy. It mandates disclosing what data is collected, how it is shared, and how users can request changes.

The law's reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy.
