If you live in California a new law let's you control what and how much data businesses have about you online. You now have the right:
- to know
- to delete
- to opt out
- to not be discriminated against
Only California residents have these rights under the CCPA at this time.
"If you are a California resident, you may ask businesses to disclose what personal information they have about you and what they do with that information, to delete your personal information and not to sell your personal information. You also have the right to be notified, before or at the point businesses collect your personal information, of the types of personal information they are collecting and what they may do with that information. Generally, businesses cannot discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA. Businesses cannot make you waive these rights, and any contract provision that says you waive these rights is unenforceable."
