Preparing for California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA): With the CCPA going into effect in January 2020, we discuss the steps marketers all over the world need to take to bring their companies into full compliance. Once enacted, CCPA will serve to protect California consumers’ rights, encourage stronger privacy, and promote greater transparency over the personal information collected about them.
Next week: we’re hosting public hearings throughout CA on our draft regulations under the California Consumer Privacy Act. You’re invited to attend, share your thoughts, & submit comments.
The #CCPA is about your data and your privacy. We need your input. https://t.co/jLxuQNuK35

Hashtag Legal created a CCPA FAQ that is free to download and does not required users to sign up for an email list. Additional resources can be found on their Instagram channel, which features helpful video tutorials in the feed and saved in highlights.
You can also view Social Media Examiner’s Privacy Policy, as mentioned on the live show.
Twitter Makes Global Privacy Changes to Comply With CCPA: Twitter updated its terms and privacy policy and launched the Twitter Privacy Center to clarify the company’s efforts to protect users’ personal information and data collected through the platform.
Today we are updating our Terms and Privacy Policy and launching the Twitter Privacy Center. These updates are backed by an evolving privacy and data protection program intended to keep us accountable and your data safe.

Other tech companies such as Microsoft, Google, IAB Tech Lab, and many others have made changes to honor California’s new privacy rights throughout the United States.
Twitter Expands Access to Brand Survey Tools to More Advertisers: Twitter helps more brands understand their tweet campaign performance by giving them access to its ad response survey tools. Twitter Brand Survey tools are available for all managed accounts in the U.S., UK, Canada, Japan, and Brazil.
Facebook Releases Data Portability Tool for Transferring Photos: Facebook released a new tool that allows users to transfer their Facebook photos and videos directly to Google Photos. This new tool marks a big first step in Facebook data portability, which was one of founder Mark Zuckerberg’s business priorities this year. This new tool is currently only available to users in Ireland but worldwide access is planned within the first half of 2020.
