What do you need to know about the delay in enforcement?

The California Superior Court has stayed enforcement of the CPRA regulations until March 29, 2024.
The CPPA’s audit authority and ability to enforce the CCPA and its regulations, and the CPRA statutory language, are not impacted by this decision.
Going forward, the CPPA will not be able to enforce a new regulation until one year following its final adoption and approval by the Office of Administrative Law.

The CPPA has 60 days to appeal. They have not indicated whether they plan to do so. The next CPPA meeting is on July 14th, and we expect to hear more regarding enforcement priorities and process then.

“The picture is very muddy, but for that very reason, I would be very careful in interpreting the delay of the CPRA regulations as permission to postpone effectuating global opt-outs,” said La Marca. Companies should still take compliance with state privacy law seriously and comply with consumer privacy requests, he added. While they don’t have to follow every single regulation right now, the text of the Privacy Rights Act is still very detailed in its obligations.
