1798.100(d) — Contracts with service providers, contractors and third parties

critical vendor-managementthird-party

Requirement

Any sale, sharing or disclosure of personal information to a third party, service provider or contractor for a business purpose is made under an agreement that specifies the limited purposes, obliges the recipient to comply with the CCPA and provide the same level of protection, grants the business rights to take reasonable steps to ensure compliance and to stop unauthorised use, and requires notice if the recipient can no longer comply.

What the engine looks for

Every group below must be satisfied — by an affirmative statement, not a plan, a hedge or a denial — for the control to count as covered. A term ending in … matches any word it begins. Supporting terms do not change the verdict — they raise confidence and distinguish a policy that names a mechanism from one that gestures at a category.
