Editor’s Note: This is an excerpt from Lothar Determann’s “California Privacy Law: Practical Guide and Commentary,” published by The Recorder and Law Journal Press. The book is a comprehensive guide for companies and their attorneys on risk prevention, response, litigation and proper navigation of federal and state privacy laws.
Financial institutions, credit reporting agencies, debt collectors, employers, merchants and other companies are regulated by a number of federal and California laws with respect to the processing of personal financial information. There are four major federal financial privacy laws: the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Right to Financial Privacy Act. California has enacted analogues to each of these four federal laws, some before and some after Congress acted.
