Do companies have to flow down access requests to service providers that maintain redundant copies of information?
No.
When a business receives a request from a consumer to access the personal information that the business has “collected,” it must decide whether to grant the request or to deny it based upon one of the exceptions to access contained in the CCPA.1 If the business decides to grant the request, the CCPA states only that the “specific pieces of personal information [the business] has collected about that consumer” should be produced.2 It does not mandate that all copies of the information be produced. As a result, if a business collects information about a consumer, transmits a copy of that information to one or more service providers, but maintains the original information in its own files, it can satisfy the access requirements of the CCPA using its own copy and without flowing down the access request.
