Be DROP-ready before August 1.
A compliance operations layer for California data brokers handling DROP deletion requests, suppression lists, service-provider routing, status reporting, and audit evidence.
DROP is not a one-time project. It's a recurring obligation.
The Delete Request and Opt-out Platform forces every registered California data broker into a perpetual deletion cycle — with serious financial consequences for falling behind.
August 1, 2026 deadline
Registered California data brokers must begin honoring DROP deletion requests on the first business day of August 2026.
45-day deletion cycle
Every 45 days, brokers must re-check the DROP list and delete newly matching consumer data — indefinitely.
Audit evidence required
The CPPA expects documented proof: who you matched, what you suppressed, when you completed each cycle.
Penalties compound fast
$200 per unresolved deletion request, per day. A backlog of 50 requests over a month is six figures of exposure.
Five steps from raw DROP list to audit-ready evidence.
A purpose-built workflow that operationalizes every CPPA requirement, without forcing your engineering team to build it from scratch.
Import the DROP list
Pull the CPPA DROP deletion list via secure upload or API on every 45-day cycle.
Match identifiers
Run hashed identifier matching against your internal systems, CRMs, and warehouses.
Generate deletion tasks
Auto-create deletion and suppression tasks with owners, SLAs, and approval gates.
Route to vendors
Dispatch deletion instructions to downstream service providers and track acknowledgments.
Export audit evidence
Produce regulator-ready evidence packs with timestamps, hashes, and chain of custody.
Everything required to operate a DROP program.
From intake to evidence export — every capability your privacy, legal, and engineering teams need in one system of record.
Deletion request tracker
A single queue for every DROP request, with status, owner, and SLA countdown.
Suppression list manager
Persistent suppression of opted-out identifiers across re-ingestion and new datasets.
Vendor deletion routing
Pre-built connectors and email workflows for service providers and third parties.
45-day compliance calendar
Automated cycle scheduling so you never miss a re-check window.
Status reporting dashboard
Real-time visibility into open, in-progress, and completed requests.
Audit log exports
Immutable logs exportable as PDF or CSV for CPPA inquiries and internal audit.
Penalty exposure estimator
Quantify open-request risk at $200/request/day in real time.
Readiness checklist
Step-by-step preparation tailored to your stack, vendors, and team size.

Built for California data brokers without a giant privacy engineering team.
If you're a 10–200 person broker with a registered status and a small compliance team, DROPShield gives you the operational backbone you'd otherwise need to build from scratch — without hiring a six-person privacy engineering org.
Predictable pricing for serious compliance programs.
