California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)

The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared and to comply with this policy.
