Abstract: This paper discusses the similarities and significant differences between the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act 2000 (PIPEDA), which sets out the ground rules for how businesses in Canada must handle personal information in the course of commercial activity, and the California Consumer Privacy Act 2018 (CCPA), which enhances privacy rights and consumer protections within the US State of California. Using PIPEDA as a baseline, the paper examines the operating practices required by these laws, and explores the issues that organisations must consider when complying with these laws.
