CCPA and mobile apps

How does CCPA apply to a mobile app?

The CCPA is California's privacy law, giving consumers rights over the personal information businesses hold about them. For a mobile app, it shapes what data the app may collect and share, and it expects reasonable security for the personal information it holds.

The technical side overlaps with GDPR and KVKK: protect personal data on the device and in transit, and control what third-party SDKs collect and share.

How Mobexa helps

Mobexa surfaces where personal information is exposed in a build, such as data stored in clear, cleartext traffic and SDKs that collect or share data, and maps each finding to the duty behind it. The evidence supports a privacy review and lines up with the work teams already do for GDPR.

Common questions

Does CCPA apply outside California?
It applies to businesses that meet its thresholds and handle the personal information of California residents, regardless of where the business is based. Many teams address it alongside GDPR and KVKK.

Mobexa maps every finding on your Android and iOS builds to CCPA (mobile) and the other standards an auditor recognises.
