Neither the CCPA nor the proposed regulations explicitly address the issue of imposing fees or costs on consumers for responding to requests for access or requests for deletion.  However, the CCPA does prohibit businesses from discriminating against consumers on account of the exercise of any right available to the consumer under CCPA, including the right to deletion.  Thus, in enforcing this provision, the California Attorney General may argue that charging a consumer to process a request for deletion is discriminatory and therefore in violation of CCPA.
