Victory! California’s new data broker law will hold data brokers accountable and give us needed control over our data by making it easier to exercise our privacy rights. @PrivacyToday @caprivacyorg

#ca continues to lead on protecting consumer privacy. #TheDeleteAct #SB362 "would create a 'one-stop shop' for asserting rights over hundreds of entities that collect, aggregate and resell consumer personal information."

.@LATimes article on #SB362 -- would give @Calprivacy the ability to create a consumer-facing portal that would enable deletion from #databrokers and do not track. Bill authored by @JoshBeckerSV latimes.com/politics/story/2…

Requiring consumers to know enough about data brokers and how to have their data deleted is a “high burden,” EFF’s @HTsuka told @Digiday. California’s Delete Act is a “fairly modest proposal” that provides a practical fix to a “really thorny problem.”

We could not be more proud and thrilled to report that the Delete Act, #SB362, has advanced out of the Senate and is heading to the Assembly! We're all one step closer to one-click deletion from data brokers and reclaiming control over our personal information.

1. @FTC & @JusticeDept took action against @Amazon for deceiving people about how it'd store the voice & geolocation data it collected through Alexa. This included telling parents that they could delete kids' voice data, but then keeping it for years.
