The California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, also known as Proposition 24, is a California ballot initiative approved by voters in the November 3, 2020 general election that expands the state's consumer privacy law and builds on the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. It lets consumers stop businesses from sharing their personal data, correct inaccurate data held about them, and limit how businesses use sensitive personal information such as precise geolocation, race, ethnicity, religion, genetic data, private communications, sexual orientation and specified health information. The act created the California Privacy Protection Agency to implement and enforce state privacy law, investigate violations and assess penalties, removed the previous fixed period in which a business could cure a violation without penalty, barred businesses from retaining personal data longer than necessary, tripled the maximum fine for violations involving a child under sixteen, and authorized civil penalties for the theft of specified login credentials. It took effect January 1, 2023, applying to personal data collected on or after January 1, 2022, and its own terms bar the state legislature from repealing it or amending it in any way inconsistent with its stated purpose.
