Carolyn Troiano has more than 40 years of experience in computer system validation in the pharmaceutical, medical device, animal health, tobacco, e-cigarette/e-liquid and other FDA-regulated industries.

During her career, Carolyn worked directly, or on a consulting basis, for many of the larger pharmaceutical companies in the US and Europe, developing validation programs and strategies, and collaborated with FDA and other industry representatives on 21 CFR Part 11, the FDA’s electronic record/electronic signature regulation.

During this webinar, in addition to learning about the California privacy rules, we will discuss the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the US and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that is in effect to protect citizens’ personal data when they reside in the European Union (EU).

Why should you attend    

Any company that does business in the state of California must understand the rules that would force them to comply with both the CCPA and the CPRA amendment to it. Knowing whether these apply to your company is critical in order to fully prepare and be in compliance by July 2023, as any company doing business in California and meeting the thresholds described must comply by that date. This may mean a change to existing policies and procedures, and creating any necessary mechanisms for handling personal information of California residents in compliance with the rule.

Companies doing business in the US must also adhere to the HIPAA regulation, and those companies that hold personally identifiable data of individuals residing in the EU must meet the GDPRs.

We will discuss the specifics about these three regulations, indicating how they are similar and dissimilar, and the requirements that must be met.

It is important to know whether CPPA, CPRA, HIPAA, and/or GDPRs apply to your company, what obligations you may have imposed on your company as a result, and what you must do to comply with these.

Topic Background 

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) was enacted into law on June 28, 2018 and became effective on January 1, 2020. CCPA provided a variety of consumer privacy rights and the obligations of business related to their storage and sale of personal information.

Voters in California voted to approve Proposition 24, a ballot measure, on November 3, 2020, which created the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). The purpose of CPRA was to modify and expand the requirements of the CCPA, thus amending the original act. CPRA is commonly referred to as “CCPA 2.0.”

CPRA ends the ban on providing the CCPA’s consumer privacy rights to a company’s employees. Under CPRA, all employers must respond to requests from employees to access or correct their personal data. Enforcement of CPRA will become effective in July 2023, enabling companies six months to ramp up their efforts to comply with it.

CPRA also extends new protections to consumers residing in California. Those organizations doing business with these consumers are subject, based on defined threshold of operation, to the compliance requirements.

Similarly, HIPAA and GDPRs extend protections to consumers residing in the US and the EU. These will be discussed along with the requirements for compliance.

The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) passed by voters in 2020 came into effect on January 1, 2023. It is considered to be an amendment to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). In this webinar, we will discuss the key changes to California’s landmark CCPA that included in the CPRA and what businesses have to do to comply with the law.
We will discuss the differences between the CPPA and the CPRA, which adds some consumer rights in California. All of the consumer rights extended by both the CCPA and the CPRA will be delineated and explained. The CPRA also defines what is meant by a business, service provider, contractor, and third party. Further, it defines what is meant by the sale of personal information, the sharing of personal information, and sensitive personal information.

We will also discuss the thresholds required for the CPRA to be applicable to a company, and if it does apply, how a company can prepare by making any necessary policy or procedural changes in order to comply.

During this webinar, we will also cover the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the US and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that is in effect to protect citizens’ personal data when they reside in the European Union (EU). We will compare and contrast these with the CPRA, providing specific requirements and how industry subject to these regulations can meet compliance.
