California Codes, Civil Code - CIV, Division 3 — Obligations, Part 4 — Obligations Arising from Particular Transactions, Title 1.81.5 — California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, Section 1798.175

Conflicting Provisions

This title is intended to further the constitutional right of privacy and to supplement existing laws relating to consumers’ personal information, including, but not limited to, Chapter 22 (commencing with Section 22575) of Division 8 of the Business and Professions Code and Title 1.81 (commencing with Section 1798.80). The provisions of this title are not limited to information collected electronically or over the Internet, but apply to the collection and sale of all personal information collected by a business from consumers. Wherever possible, law relating to consumers’ personal information should be construed to harmonize with the provisions of this title, but in the event of a conflict between other laws and the provisions of this title, the provisions of the law that afford the greatest protection for the right of privacy for consumers shall control.

Notes

Establishes that the title furthers the constitutional right of privacy, supplements existing personal-information laws, and applies to all personal information a business collects from consumers, not only electronic or Internet-collected information. Requires related laws to be harmonized where possible and, when laws conflict, makes the provision affording consumers the greatest privacy protection controlling.
