CCPA/CPRA California

The California Privacy Protection Agency fined Jerico Pictures, Inc., doing business as National Public Data, $46,000 for registering as a data broker 230 days late under the Delete Act, registering only after the agency's Enforcement Division made contact. The company separately made headlines in 2024 for a massive data breach.
