Businesses may receive a bit of breathing room as a result of two amendments to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) passed on Friday, September 13, 2019, by the California Legislature. The Legislature gave businesses a one-year moratorium on two significant aspects of the law: its application to employees, job applicants, owners, officers, directors, medical staff members, and contractors; and its application to business-to-business transactions. The Governor has until October 13, 2019, to sign or reject the amendments. Although the amendments provide some of the needed clarifications and error corrections and a significant break from needing to respond to certain data subject requests from employees and B2B contacts, businesses will still need to complete their data mapping (even for these categories of consumers) and will still need to be prepared to offer the rights not exempted on January 1, 2020, even if these amendments are signed by the Governor.For those following the process, five bills passed the Legislature: AB 25, AB 874, AB 1146, AB 1355, and AB 1564. Proposed amendment AB 846 on loyalty programs was shelved. In addition to the two widely applicable amendments about employees and business-to-business transactions discussed in detail below, the Legislature also passed a number of minor or narrowly applicable amendments. The amendments amount to 98 pages of printed material. We will cover only the more significant of them in this article.
