A Guide to CCPA and Your Insight Community

Effective January 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives California residents increased control over their personal information, including a number of specific consumer rights.

This is your guide to managing your Alida Sparq insight community in a manner that helps support your members’ rights under CCPA.

Your members now have the right to opt-out of the sale of personal information

Members must be provided a mechanism which allows them to request that a business stop selling their personal information. A prominent, dedicated link to the mechanism must be provided.
