Consumers also have the right, at any time, to direct a business that sells personal information about them not to sell their personal information. The CCPA sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information.

Deny the consumer goods or services;
Charge different prices or rates for goods and services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;
Provide a different level or quality of goods or services; or
Suggest that a consumer may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
