VCDPA questions
Virginia privacy law,
explained.
Who enforces the VCDPA?
The Virginia Attorney General has exclusive enforcement authority. There is no private right of action — individuals cannot sue companies directly under the VCDPA.
Does the VCDPA cover data brokers?
Yes. Data brokers that process Virginia residents’ data must comply with VCDPA obligations including responding to deletion requests within 45 days.
How is the VCDPA different from CCPA?
The VCDPA has no private right of action and applies to businesses processing data from 100,000+ consumers annually. The CCPA applies to businesses with $25M+ revenue or 100,000+ consumer records.
How does ClickOff help me use my VCDPA rights?
ClickOff acts as your authorized agent under the VCDPA and all applicable state laws. Instead of sending individual deletion requests to hundreds of data brokers one by one, ClickOff submits on your behalf to 200+ brokers simultaneously — with a legal receipt generated instantly. Free forever.
