Unmanned aircraft: state and local State Judiciary, Civil Law & Procedure, Public Resources, Land Use & regulation: limitations. Existing law prohibits a person from Conservation, Parks, Natural Reserves & Recreational Areas knowingly and intentionally operating an unmanned aircraft system on or above the grounds of a state prison, a jail, or a juvenile hall, camp, or ranch. Existing law provides a state or local public entity or employee with immunity as to any person engaging in hazardous recreational activity, as defined, and for damage to an unmanned aircraft while the local entity or employee is providing emergency services. Existing law defines “unmanned aircraft” and other terms for purposes of these provisions. Existing federal regulations, adopted and administered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), regulate the operation of unmanned aircraft and unmanned aircraft systems. Existing federal regulations generally preclude enforcement of these regulations by state or local entities, except in certain areas such as police use, and prohibiting use for voyeurism, following consultation with the FAA.This bill would, among other things, prohibit a state or local agency from adopting any law or regulation that bans the operation of an unmanned aircraft system. The bill would also authorize a local agency to adopt regulations to enforce FAA regulations regarding the operation of unmanned aircraft systems and would authorize local agencies to regulate the operation of unmanned aircraft and unmanned aircraft systems within their jurisdictions, as specified. The bill would also authorize a local agency to require an unmanned aircraft operator to provide proof of federal, state, or local registration to licensing or enforcement officials. The bill would authorize a local entity to designate a recreational operating area for unmanned aircraft operation. The bill would immunize a local entity that designates such a recreational are from liability for injury or damage associated with unmanned aircraft operation, if specified signage is posted. The bill would define terms for purposes of these provisions.

Description AB 1217, as amended, Mullin. Political Reform Act of 1974: electioneering and issue lobbying communications: disclosures. The Political Reform Act of 1974 provides for the comprehensive regulation of campaign financing and activities. Among other things, the act requires specified disclosures in advertisements regarding the source of the advertisement. The act defines “advertisement” for these purposes to mean a general or public communication that is authorized and paid for by a committee for the purpose of supporting or opposing a candidate or candidates for elective office or a ballot measure or ballot measures. The act also requires certain advertisements paid for by certain committees to disclose the names of the top contributors, which is defined for these purposes to mean the persons from whom the committee paying for an advertisement has received its three highest cumulative contributions of $50,000 or more.This bill would require a person who makes payments of $10,000 dollars or more for “electioneering communications” or “issue lobbying communications” to make specified disclosures in connection with those communications. The bill would define “electioneering communication” to mean any public communication that clearly identifies a candidate for elective state office, but does not expressly advocate for the election or defeat of the candidate, and that is disseminated, broadcast, distributed, or published during a specified period before an election. It would define “issue lobbying communication” to mean any public communication that clearly refers to and reflects a view on the subject matter, description, or name of one or more clearly identified pending state legislative or administrative actions, and that meets other specified criteria. The bill would also require a person who makes payments for electioneering or issue lobbying communications to disclose the names of the persons providing the funding for those payments, as specified, and to maintain records to verify the accuracy of the required disclosures.Because a violation of the act is punishable as a misdemeanor, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.The Political Reform Act of 1974, an initiative measure, provides that the Legislature may amend the act to further the act’s purposes upon a 2/3 vote of each house of the Legislature and compliance with specified procedural requirements.This bill would declare that it furthers the...

Media, Government Administration, Municipal Governments, Financials, Banking & Investment, Insurance Description Newspapers; legal notice and publications; requirements. Alters the requirements for newspapers that may be used for legal notices and publications by (i) changing the publication and circulation requirement from 24 consecutive weeks to at least 50 of the preceding 52 weeks and requiring such publication be in printed form; (ii) requiring that such a newspaper provide general news coverage of the area in which the notice is to be published; and (iii) requiring that such a newspaper have a periodicals mailing permit issued by the United States Postal Service. The bill further provides that a newspaper that lacks a periodicals permit issued by the United States Postal Service may petition the circuit court for the jurisdiction in which such notices or publications are to be published, as opposed to where such newspaper is located as current law requires, for the authority to be certified as a newspaper of general circulation. The bill further allows a locality that determines that no newspaper published in such locality otherwise meets the requirements that enable it to be a newspaper for the use of such notices and publications to petition the circuit court in the jurisdiction in which such notices and publications are to be published for the authority to be published in another medium. The bill specifies that such petition shall not be filed without majority approval of the locality's local governing body. The bill requires that any newspaper authorized to publish such notices and publications shall also (a) print such notices and publications in a prominent location in such newspaper with an identifying heading in boldface letters no smaller than 24-point type and (b) maintain at least three years' worth of print archives of such newspaper and make such archives available for public inspection. The bill further requires that a newspaper shall post a notice on the newspaper's website, if such a website is published by such newspaper, and on a searchable, statewide repository website established and maintained as a joint venture of the majority of Virginia newspapers as a repository for such notices. The bill provides that any notice published on a website shall be accessible to the public at no charge.

California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. (1) Existing Crime, White Collar, Technology, Software & IT Services, Innovation, law, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, beginning January Financials, Insurance 1, 2020, grants consumers various rights with regard to their personal information held by businesses, including the right to request a business to disclose specific pieces of personal information it has collected and to have information held by that business deleted, as specified. The act requires a business to disclose and deliver the required information to a consumer free of charge within 45 days of receiving a verifiable consumer request from the consumer. The act prohibits a business from requiring a consumer to create an account with the business in order to make a verifiable consumer request. This bill would provide an exception to that prohibition by authorizing a business to require authentication of the consumer that is reasonable in light of the nature of the personal information requested in order to make a verifiable consumer request. However, the bill would authorize a business to require a consumer to submit a verifiable consumer request through an account that the consumer maintains with the business if the consumer maintains an account with that business. (2) The act also authorizes a consumer to bring a private civil action, as specified, against a business that violates its duty to implement reasonable security procedures and practices if that failure results in a consumer’s personal information being subject to unauthorized access and exfiltration, theft, or disclosure. The act also requires a business that collects a consumer’s personal information to, at or before the point of collection, inform consumers as to the categories of personal information to be collected and the purposes for which the categories of personal information shall be used.This bill would exempt, until January 1, 2021, from all provisions of the act, except the private civil action provision and the obligation to inform the consumer as to the categories of personal information to be collected as described above, information collected from a natural person by a business in the course of the natural person acting as a job applicant to, an employee of, owner of, director of, officer of, medical staff member of, or contractor of that business, as specified.This bill would make various other nonsubstantive changes.This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 1798.130 of the Civil Code proposed by AB 1355 and AB 1564 to be operative only if either or both of those bills are enacted and this bill is enacted last.This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 1798.145 of the Civil Code proposed by AB 1146 and AB 1355 to be operative only if either or both of those bills are enacte...

Existing law, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, beginning on January 1, 2020, grants a consumer various rights with regard to personal information relating to that consumer that is held by a business. Among these rights, the act allows a consumer to opt out of having the consumer’s personal information sold to third parties by a business, and the act requires a business that sells a consumer’s personal information to third parties to give that consumer notice, as specified. The act prohibits a business from discriminating against the consumer for exercising any of the consumer’s rights under the act, except that a business may offer a different price, rate, level, or quality of goods or services to a consumer if the differential treatment is reasonably related to value provided to the consumer by the consumer’s data.The act authorizes a business to enter a consumer into a financial incentive program only if the consumer affirmatively consents, subject to revocation at any time by the consumer, to the material terms of the incentive program, and the act requires a business that offers a financial incentive to a consumer to notify the consumer of the financial incentive, as specified.The act further prohibits a business from using a financial incentive practice that is unjust, unreasonable, coercive, or usurious in nature.This bill would prohibit the act from being construed to prohibit a business from offering a different price, rate, level, or quality of goods or services to a consumer if the offering is in connection with a consumer’s voluntary participation in a loyalty, rewards, premium features, discount, or club card program, as defined. The bill would prohibit a business from offering loyalty, rewards, premium features, discounts, or club card programs that are unjust, unreasonable, coercive, or usurious in nature. The bill would prohibit a business from selling the personal information of consumers collected as part of a loyalty, rewards, premium features, discounts, or club card program, subject to specified exceptions, including that the business is authorized to sell the information to a third party for the purpose of providing the consumer with a financial incentive, sale, or other discount if the business obtains the express consent of the consumer to sell the information to the specific third party after the business discloses the terms of the sale, and the consumer is given the option to participate in the program, on equal terms with other participants, without consenting to the sale of the consumer’s personal information with any third parties.

California Consumer Privacy Act of & IT Services, Innovation, Crime, White Collar 2018. (1) Existing law, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, beginning on January 1, 2020, grants consumers various rights with regard to their personal information held by businesses, including the right to know what categories of personal information and the specific pieces a business collects and to have information held by that business deleted, as specified. Existing law imposes certain responsibilities on the Attorney General in connection with the act, including creating regulations and providing guidance on how to comply with the act.The act excludes from the definition of personal information consumer information that is deidentified, or aggregate consumer information. The act defines “deidentified” to mean information that cannot reasonably identify, relate to, describe, be capable of being associated with, or be linked, directly or indirectly, to a particular consumer, provided that a business using deidentified information has implemented technical safeguards that prohibit reidentification of the consumer to whom the information may pertain, has implemented business processes specifically prohibiting reidentification of the information to prevent inadvertent release, and makes no attempt to reidentify the information.This bill would revise the definition of “deidentified” to instead mean information that does not identify, and is not reasonably linkable, directly or indirectly, to a particular consumer, provided that the business makes no attempt to reidentify the information and takes reasonable technical and administrative measures designed to ensure that the data is deidentified, publicly commits to maintain and use the data in a deidentified form, and contractually prohibits recipients of the data from trying to reidentify it. (2) Existing law defines “personal information,” as, among other information, that which is capable of being associated with or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.This bill would instead specify that personal information includes, but is not limited to, specified information that, among other things, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.(3) Existing law specifies that the act is not to be construed to require a business to reidentify or otherwise link information that is not maintained in a manner that would be considered personal information.

The act generally provides for its enforcement by the Attorney General, but also provides for a private right of action in certain circumstances.The act defines “personal information” to mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. The act excludes “publicly available information” from the definition of “personal information,” and defines the term “publicly available” to mean information that is lawfully made available from federal, state, or local government records, if any conditions associated with that information. Existing law further specifies that information is not “publicly available” if that data is used for a purpose that is not compatible with the purpose for which the data is maintained and made available in the government records or for which it is publicly maintained and specifies that “publicly available” does not include consumer information that is deidentified or aggregate consumer information. This bill would redefine “personal information” to mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. The bill would also define “publicly available” to mean information that is lawfully made available from federal, state, or local records.
