- Wondering if the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) applies to your business? It may. The CCPA applies to all businesses, headquartered both inside and outside of California, that collect personal information of California residents. The CCPA defines “business” as a for-profit entity (meaning non-profits are excluded) that collects consumers’ personal information that meets at least one of the following thresholds (i) has annual gross revenues in excess of $25,000,000; (ii) alone or in combination, annually buys, receives for the business’ commercial purposes, sells, or shares for commercial purposes, alone or in combination, the personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, households, or devices; or (iii) derives 50% or more of its annual revenues from selling consumers’ personal information.
