California Adds Privacy Guidelines for Websites
Posted in: Uncategorized
California wants websites to provide more information on how they use consumer data they gather.
A 28-page “Making Your Privacy Practices Public” document from Attorney General Kamala Harris on Wednesday suggests that sites update their privacy policies with information about how they respond to Do Not Track signals and how they use personally identifiable data. Though they’re only guidelines, they reaffirm the state’s continued mission to be at the forefront of privacy issues in the absence of a Do Not Track standard.
The guidelines call on sites to highlight the sections of their privacy policies that explain how they respond to Do Not Track signals. “Use a header, for example ‘How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals,’ ‘Online Tracking’ or ‘California Do Not Track Disclosures,” states the document.
