1649 charsCalifornia Privacy Protection Agency Seeks Preliminary Comments on Notices and Disclosures Regulations
On April 20, 2026, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) launched a preliminary comment period on potential regulatory changes relating to notices and disclosures, including employee data provisions. The CPPA is gathering information and stakeholder input to determine whether regulatory modifications are necessary in these areas.
The preliminary comment period will remain open until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on May 20, 2026. Stakeholders may submit comments electronically to regulations@cppa.ca.gov with the subject line "Preliminary Comment – Notices & Disclosures and Employee Data April 2026", or by mail to the CPPA Legal Division – Regulations at 400 R Street, Suite 350, Sacramento, California 95811.
The CPPA has clarified that preliminary comments are intended to inform its preliminary rulemaking activities and do not represent any decisions regarding future regulatory proposals. Should the CPPA decide to proceed with formal rulemaking, a separate formal public comment period will be conducted under the Administrative Procedure Act. All preliminary comments received will be treated as public records subject to disclosure and may be included in future rulemaking packages. Stakeholders seeking further information about the rulemaking process or wishing to receive notifications regarding rulemaking activities can subscribe to the "Rulemaking Proceedings" email list on the CPPA website at https://cppa.ca.gov/webapplications/apps/subscribe/.

1678 charsCalifornia Privacy Protection Agency Seeks Preliminary Comments on Notices and Disclosures Regulations
On April 20, 2026, the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) issued an invitation for preliminary comments on potential regulatory changes to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) rules. The agency is exploring whether to amend existing regulations or adopt new ones related to two topics: notices and disclosures (such as privacy policies and collection notices), and the handling of employee personal information. The CPPA will use the input to inform possible future rulemaking.
Key areas of inquiry include:
Notices and disclosures: The CPPA is asking what information consumers value most in privacy policies, what language they find confusing, and how businesses can more effectively deliver notices across different devices (such as mobile apps, smart TVs, gaming systems). The agency is also seeking examples of effective notices and suggestions for improving opt‑out links and rights notifications.
Employee data: The CPPA is gathering feedback from job applicants and employees about their experiences receiving privacy notices and exercising CCPA rights (such as access, deletion). It is also asking businesses about challenges in providing notices to workers, overseeing service providers and contractors for CCPA compliance, and managing privacy throughout the employment lifecycle, including hiring and offboarding.
The preliminary comment period will remain open until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on May 20, 2026 . Stakeholders may submit comments electronically to regulations@cppa.ca.gov. No formal regulations have been proposed yet. If the CPPA decides to move forward, a public comment period will be held later under the formal rulemaking process.
