1798.125(a) Do not discriminate or retaliate against consumers who use their rights

A business must not deny goods or services, charge different prices, provide a different quality, or suggest any of these because a consumer exercised a CCPA right, and must not retaliate against employees, applicants or contractors who do so. A difference is lawful only if it reasonably reflects what the consumer's data is worth to the business; denials permitted by law and differences required by other law are not discrimination (11 CCR 7080).

Applies only to a business that meets one of the thresholds in Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140(d).

where the evidence lives
teal = a system already holds it · olive = produced at each review. To go live: easy when half or more of the artefacts are already held by a system, moderate from a quarter to a half, hard below a quarter.

These are the artefacts auditors commonly ask for on this requirement, our guidance rather than text from the standard. Your assessor decides what is sufficient in your context, and asks for samples across the period when a report covers one.

First move

No system holds this evidence for you: it is people and documents. Reminders and routing to the owner still save time. Put the document under version control with an owner and review date, and log each review as a record with reviewer and date.
