ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

CPRA (effective January 1, 2023) expands CCPA obligations, including rights around sensitive personal information, data minimization, and purpose limitation. Betterment as a financial services entity must navigate CPRA alongside GLBA exemptions, and compliance teams should audit which data categories fall under each regulatory regime.
