California

Saturday, November 2, will mark 60 days until the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) goes into effect. While each organization will have its unique compliance challenges, as discussed below, there are a discrete set of tasks – at a minimum – that each organization needs to undertake in the next 60 days as the first steps toward compliance.

In addition, on November 13, members of Husch Blackwell’s privacy and cybersecurity practice group will present a webinar to discuss these tasks in greater detail.  For more information or to register, click here.
