GDPR & CCPA Requirements

What are GDPR and CCPA?

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) are data privacy regulations that govern how organizations collect, process, store, and share personal data.

GDPR applies to organizations handling the data of EU residents and focuses on lawful processing, user consent, transparency, and data subject rights. CCPA applies to California residents and grants consumers rights to access, delete, and opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information.

Both regulations shift control of personal data to the user and require organizations to prove compliance through clear policies, auditable systems, and enforceable controls.

LoginRadius helps organizations align with GDPR and CCPA by centralizing customer identity data, consent records, and privacy controls within a single CIAM platform.

What are Data Subject Rights under GDPR and CCPA?

Data subject rights define what individuals can request regarding their personal data.

Under GDPR, users have the right to access their data, correct inaccuracies, request deletion (right to be forgotten), restrict processing, and obtain a copy of their data. CCPA provides similar rights, including the right to know what data is collected, the right to delete data, and the right to opt out of data sharing or selling.

Fulfilling these requests manually is error-prone and difficult to scale, especially across multiple applications and regions.

LoginRadius supports automated data access, deletion, and portability workflows, enabling organizations to respond to privacy requests efficiently and consistently.

What is Lawful Basis and Consent under GDPR?

Lawful basis defines the legal reason an organization can process personal data under GDPR.

Consent is one lawful basis, but it must be explicit, informed, freely given, and revocable. Other lawful bases include contractual necessity, legal obligations, and legitimate interest—each requiring clear documentation and governance.

Consent must be captured at the right moment, tied to a specific purpose, versioned over time, and easily withdrawn by the user.

LoginRadius provides built-in consent capture, versioning, and revocation mechanisms, allowing organizations to manage lawful processing transparently across user journeys.

How does CCPA Opt-Out and Preference Management Work?

CCPA requires organizations to give users control over how their data is used and shared.

Consumers must be able to opt out of data selling or sharing, understand what information is collected, and manage their preferences without friction. These choices must persist across sessions, devices, and applications.

A fragmented identity system makes enforcing preferences consistently nearly impossible.

LoginRadius centralizes user preference and opt-out management within the identity layer, ensuring privacy choices are enforced across all connected applications.

How do organizations handle GDPR and CCPA compliance at scale?

Compliance at scale requires automation, governance, and visibility.

Organizations must track consent, enforce data minimization, fulfill user rights requests, and maintain detailed audit trails—all while supporting millions of users across regions. Manual processes do not scale and increase regulatory risk.

A CIAM platform becomes the system of record for privacy enforcement, ensuring compliance is built into authentication and profile management.

LoginRadius enables scalable compliance through centralized identity governance, automated privacy workflows, regional data controls, and detailed audit logs.

Do GDPR and CCPA require audit logs?

Yes, auditability is a critical requirement for compliance.

Organizations must be able to demonstrate when data was accessed, changed, shared, or deleted, and by whom. This is essential for regulatory inquiries, internal governance, and breach investigations.

Without audit logs, proving compliance becomes nearly impossible.

LoginRadius provides detailed identity audit logs covering authentication events, profile changes, consent updates, and administrative actions.

Does LoginRadius help with GDPR and CCPA compliance?

Yes, LoginRadius is designed to support GDPR and CCPA requirements as part of its CIAM platform.

LoginRadius enables consent lifecycle management, data access and deletion workflows, configurable data residency, and comprehensive audit logging. These capabilities allow organizations to embed privacy-by-design into customer identity flows while maintaining compliance across regions and applications.
