Are You Prepared for the CCPA?
Consumer Privacy a Critical Issue
Presented by EXL
 The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) of 2018 will expand California consumer privacy rights beyond the existing law that requires confidentiality of personal information and disclosure in the event of a security breach. It prescribes specific guidelines on the collection of personal information, as well as how that data is used by businesses.
Industry trends suggest that companies are still in the initial stages of their CCPA compliance journey, trying to understand the law and its requirements.
Who does it impact?
Business entities that collect California residents' personal information and meet at least one or more of the following criteria need to comply with this act:
The Act was signed on June 28, 2018, and will come into effect on January 1, 2020. Companies need to get ready.
About EXL
EXL is partnering with a number of clients to help them prepare for the upcoming deadline and avoid costly fines associated with noncompliance.
Take your first step towards meeting CCPA requirements using EXL's Comprehensive Compliance Assessment. Check out the link, and contact EXL for further information.

Tip of the Month
Revisiting History
Let's say that last week you traced a particular shipment for a particular customer, and now this week you have an urgent need to revisit that shipment. The trouble is, your memory isn't what it used to be and, for the life of you, you can't recall the pro number.
Fear not. There's a nifty but seldom-used option in FACTS Multi-Trace that was designed for just this kind of dilemma. In the left-hand menu, simply click on "History," and FACTS will display every shipment you have traced in the selected Date Range. Not only can you increase or decrease the Date Range as needed, you can also filter the results by Shipper and Consignee, as well as Origin and Destination Terminal. You can also export the results to a spreadsheet.
Any questions? Contact the CLI support team.
