CalPrivacy’s School Platform Action Highlights Opt-Outs, Protections for Vulnerable Users
Privacy Daily quotes Andrew Folks in the article, “CalPrivacy’s School Platform Action Highlights Opt-Outs, Protections for Vulnerable.” Last week’s $1.1 million California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) settlement with PlayOn Sports—a high school sports website—requires the company to conduct risk assessments, provide clearer disclosures, and improve its opt‑out methods.
The settlement underscores how CCPA is prioritizing effective opt‑out protections for vulnerable populations, business attorneys, and consumers. According to Folks, the case is especially significant because the site “was fined $1.1 million despite fixing its website and notices before CalPrivacy even made contact.” He further emphasized that, as with “nearly all of these CCPA cases, it’s important for businesses to audit their opt‑outs… reliance on third‑party industry tools, just like reliance on vendor tools, should be a business priority.”
