Can I skip providing notice to consumers of their rights under CCPA in Connecticut? What are the requirements?
Notice Requirements under CCPA in Connecticut
Under the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), businesses are required to provide notice to consumers of their rights under the CCPA. The CCPA is a California law that grants California residents certain rights with respect to their personal information. However, the CTDPA applies to all businesses that collect personal information from Connecticut residents, regardless of where the business is located.
Therefore, if you are a business that collects personal information from Connecticut residents, you must provide notice to those residents of their rights under the CCPA. This notice must be provided at or before the point of collection and must include the following information:
- The categories of personal information that the business collects about the consumer.
- The purposes for which the personal information will be used.
- The categories of third parties with whom the business shares the personal information.
- The consumer’s right to request that the business delete their personal information.
- The consumer’s right to request that the business not sell their personal information.
Failure to provide this notice may result in penalties under the CTDPA.
Therefore, you cannot skip providing notice to consumers of their rights under CCPA in Connecticut if you collect personal information from Connecticut residents.
