Guide to the California Consumer Privacy Act

Jeffrey R. Glassman, Partner in Ervin Cohen & Jessup’s Business & Corporate Department, will be a featured speaker at the Information Systems Audit and Control Association’s (ISACA) 2021 North American conference on May 4, 2021. His presentation titled, Guide to the California Consumer Privacy Act, will help companies and their clients mitigate legal and reputation risks over failures to address new issues raised by the CCPA.

The CCPA requires businesses to manage and protect personal information collected from consumers in brand new ways that we all need to be aware of, especially third-party service providers like outsourced IT companies. Many companies have overlooked the fact that the CCPA went into effect on January 1, 2020, and the California Attorney General's Office began enforcing it on July 1, 2021, with penalties as much as $7,500 (or more) per violation.
