The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a sweeping change to existing privacy laws is an important change in data privacy regulations in the USA, as it aims to give Californian consumers broad rights to access and control their personal information. The bill (AB-375) was passed by the California State Legislature and signed into law by the Governor of California, on June 28, 2018, to amend Part 4 of Division 3 of the California Civil Code.

The CCPA applies to any business, including any for-profit entity that collects consumers' personal data, which does business in California, and satisfies at least one of these thresholds:

earns more than half of its annual revenue from selling consumers' personal data;
organizations are required to "implement and maintain reasonable security procedures and practices" in protecting consumer info.
