In this episode of All Killer, No Filler DTC Podcast, host Eric Dyck talks with Pilothouse’s Technical Manager Richard about the expanding impact of California’s CCPA/CPRA and evolving privacy laws across North America.
Key moments to listen for:
CCPA/CPRA 101 & penalties – Up to $7.5K per violation, private-data breach lawsuits, and agency enforcement
Thresholds that trigger compliance – Revenue over $25M, 100K+ Californians’ data, or data‑sale revenue ≥50%
Multi‑state comparison – VA, CO, CT, and others have their own compliance standards
Compliance tooling deep dive – Shopify solutions (ConsentMo, Pandectis, SecurePrivacy) for banners, data access, and opt‑outs
Tracking vs. consent – Even server‑side tracking must respect opt‑outs
Case study – A client lost 58% of Analytics data but only 4% of purchases after adding full compliance tools
Future of data consent – How PIPEDA, GDPR-like shifts, and AI‑driven consent profiles are shaping privacy
This episode is essential listening for ecommerce and tech managers who need to navigate privacy law demands without compromising growth and analytics integrity.
