As the state observes Data Privacy Day on January 28th, the Oregon DOJ has rolled out a new toolkit with additional handouts and social media content to help Oregonians protect their online information. This resource will help families understand their rights under the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA). The privacy law, which took effect last July, empowers individuals and families to take control of their personal data—which could range from your home address to browsing history and even health information.
“We want to make sure everyone in Oregon knows they have privacy rights. This law allows parents and teens to request that a website delete information about a child or themselves. That way, they can reduce the risk of being exploited by advertisers or data brokers.” – AG Rayfield
