Start using a California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) Information Protection Impact Assessment (IPIA) Log, which enables you to to manage consumer’s information and requests for Opt-out of the sale of personal information. An IPIA objective is to identify and analyze how data privacy of personal information might be affected by certain actions or activities. Executing IPIA's helps organizations to identify, assess and mitigate/minimize privacy risks during data processing activities. These assessments are particularly relevant when a new information processing process, system or technology is being introduced in the organization.

By frequently carrying out IPIAs, it will help to comply with the requirements of the CCPA and demonstrate that appropriate measures have been taken to ensure the organization is (willing to become) compliant.

If an organization is found not to be compliant with CCPA, failure to not adequately have conducted an IPIA on a regular basis, and therefore having the risk to not comply with the latest privacy regulations.
