CalOPPA in the Context of Evolving Privacy Regulations

Here is a summary of the provided document:

Summary:

The California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA), enacted in 2004, remains a significant piece of privacy legislation despite the emergence of newer, more comprehensive laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). CalOPPA introduced the mandatory requirement of privacy policies for websites and online services, setting a precedent for other states. While newer laws may have more exhaustive requirements, they often operate in tandem with CalOPPA, and the latter continues to hold its ground as a foundational layer of privacy regulation, especially for small businesses or websites that may not meet the applicability criteria of newer laws.
