CCPA: request deletion of personal information collected from you, subject to coverage and exceptions. DROP adds a
centralized request to registered data brokers; mandatory processing began August 1, 2026, with recurring checks. This
does not erase the internet. Recheck the effective dates of recent amendments before delivering the talk.
Presenter reference: Civil Code section 1798.105(a) states the deletion-request right. Subdivision (c)(1) addresses
deletion and notices to service providers, contractors, and recipients, subject to its stated limits. Subdivision (c)(2)
permits a limited confidential request record; subdivision (d) contains retention exceptions. These provisions alone do
not establish a private damages claim. Midpage marks this section current as of October 23, 2026.
