§ 7102. Requirements for Businesses Collecting Large Amounts of Personal Information.

(a) A business that knows or reasonably should know that it, alone or in combination, buys, receives for the business’s commercial purposes, sells, shares, or otherwise makes available for commercial purposes the personal information of 10,000,000 or more consumers in a calendar year shall:

(1) Compile the following metrics for the previous calendar year:

(A) The number of requests to delete that the business received, complied with in whole or in part, and denied;

(B) The number of requests to correct that the business received, complied with in whole or in part, and denied;

(C) The number of requests to know that the business received, complied with in whole or in part, and denied;

(D) The number of requests to opt-out of sale/sharing that the business received, complied with in whole or in part, and denied;

(E) The number of requests to limit that the business received, complied with in whole or in part, and denied; and

(F) The median or mean number of days within which the business substantively responded to requests to delete, requests to correct, requests to know, requests to opt-out of sale/sharing, and requests to limit.

(1) Disclose, by July 1 of every calendar year, the information compiled in subsection (a)(1) within their privacy policy or posted on their website and accessible from a link included in their privacy policy. In its disclosure, a business may choose to disclose the number of requests that it denied in whole or in part because the request was not verifiable, was not made by a consumer, called for information exempt from disclosure, or was denied on other grounds.

(b) A business may choose to compile and disclose the information required by subsection (a)(1) for requests received from all individuals, rather than requests received from consumers. The business shall state whether it has done so in its disclosure and shall, upon request, compile and provide to the Attorney General the information required by subsection (a)(1) for requests received from consumers.
