Delete Request and Opt-out Platform ("DROP") System Requirements

In 2023, the Legislature passed the Delete Act (Senate Bill (SB) 362, Chapter 709, Statutes of 2023), which requires the Agency to establish an accessible deletion mechanism that allows consumers to request from registered data brokers the deletion of all non-exempt personal information related to the consumer through a single deletion request to the Agency. The Agency is seeking to build the Data Broker Delete Requests and Opt-Out Platform (DROP) and accompanying regulations to implement this law.
