If signed, the bill will require the California Privacy Protection Agency to set up a website by 2026 where residents could go to, listing every single data broker registered in the state of California, to delete whatever data they had on the individual - and to keep deleting anything new they acquired every 45 days. The bill would also prohibit the selling or sharing of any newly collected personal data of an individual who requested deletion.
To ensure that the brokers follow the law, SB 362 would also shift responsibility for data broker registration from the California Attorney General's office to the CPPA so all the enforcement could happen under one roof. The bill will also require data brokers to undergo triennial audits to ensure they've been complying with the bill's provisions, and would impose civil penalties on violators.
Californians have every right under the law, as it stands, to request their data be deleted from a broker's database, but it's difficult. There are around 500 data brokersin the state of California, and consumers have to contact every single one individually to request their data be wiped. "Data brokers currently have the ability to use data on reproductive healthcare, geolocation, and purchasing data to sell it to the highest bidder," California state Senator Josh Becker, who introduced the bill,"This bill will help Californians actually exercise the right to delete their information from data brokers and protect our right to privacy," Becker
