The CCPA thresholds explained

A for-profit business that does business in California is covered by the CCPA if it meets any one of three tests: annual gross revenue above $26,625,000 (the $25 million statutory figure, adjusted for inflation from 1 January 2025); buying, selling or sharing the personal information of 100,000 or more California consumers or households a year; or earning 50% or more of annual revenue from selling or sharing personal information.

The revenue test counts worldwide revenue, not only California sales. The California Privacy Protection Agency re-adjusts the figure in odd-numbered years.

Frequently asked questions

Is the CCPA revenue threshold still $25 million?

No. Since 1 January 2025 it is $26,625,000 after the CPI adjustment.

Does the CCPA apply to companies outside California?

Yes, if they do business in California and meet a threshold.

Do website pixels count towards 100,000 consumers?

Often yes: passing visitor identifiers to ad platforms for behavioural advertising is usually "sharing".
