To the extent applicable, privacy rights may be available under statutes such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), subject to statutory thresholds, exemptions, legal obligations, professional-responsibility duties, privilege, work-product protections and record-retention obligations.
