On April 25, 2025, the California Privacy Protection Agency (“CPPA”) opened the formal public comment period on proposed regulations for the Delete Request and Opt-Out Platform (“DROP”). The CPPA’s proposed DROP regulations are part of the agency’s efforts to implement California’s Delete Act, which requires the CPPA to establish an accessible deletion mechanism to allow 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 CPPA. The comment period will remain open until June 10, 2025.
