How do I report a CCPA violation?

You can report a CCPA violation by using this consumer complaint form from the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA).

You can also submit complaints by callings the California Attorney General’s office or sending them a letter.

  • Your contact information.
  • The contact information of the business you are reporting.
  • An explanation of how the business violated the CCPA.
  • A description of when and how the violation occurred.
