Snapchat will implement a feature enabling California-based users to ask the application to "limit the use of sensitive personal information," TechCrunch reports. The toggle switch is designed to comply with the California Privacy Rights Act, which takes effect Jan. 1, 2023. While the feature will appear in the privacy controls section of the app's settings for all users, its function works only for users located in California.
