California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced California Consumer Privacy Act noncompliance letters were sent to various mobile application providers as part of a recent investigative sweep. The attorney general's office alerted "popular apps in the retail, travel, and food service industries" to alleged CCPA violations related to user opt-out requests, a lack of clear opt-out mechanisms and failure to process consumer requests submitted via an authorized agent. Bonta said his office "is working tirelessly" to bring opt-out practices into compliance, noting the focus on mobile apps was due to the "wide array of sensitive information that these apps can access."
