How MX Stacks Up Against the Competition

CCPA compliance requires strict data handling. My MX Data supports this with full encryption, privacy controls, and transparent audit logs for every transfer.

It’s best in Security & Compliance, File Control, Collaboration, and Privacy Management.

Built to Support CCPA Rules - MX uses its ASR methodology to protect personal data in line with California’s privacy standards. ℹ️ What does this mean?ASR (Anonymize, Shard, Restore) anonymizes files at source, breaks them into encrypted shards, stores them in separate secure areas, and restores them only for verified access, exceeding AES-256 strength.

Full Access Reporting - Generates detailed logs for audits, customer requests, and compliance reviews.

Integrated Data Subject Request Handling - Supports CCPA “right to know” and “right to delete” workflows.

WeTransfer lacks built-in features for CCPA-specific handling of consumer data.

Google Drive and Dropbox do not have native shard-based privacy protection.

CCPA File Security

Named User Restriction – File access is tied directly to verified accounts, ensuring personal data is never exposed to unauthorized users.

Data Residency Alignment – Store files in locations that meet CCPA requirements and client privacy expectations.

🟡Focused Storage Controls – Upload, retrieve, and monitor file activity without adding complex document management layers.

No Real-Time Sync – Prioritizes deliberate, secure sharing over constant background file transfers.

CCPA File Control

Privacy-First Transfers – Share personal and business data in line with California Consumer Privacy Act requirements, with full access logs.

On-File Discussions – Coordinate securely with colleagues while maintaining a complete communication trail for compliance checks.

Custom Branding – Use your own logos and color schemes to reassure clients that they are dealing directly with your organization.

🟡No In-Platform Editing – CCPA-compliant transfers apply to final versions of files, not live edits.

CCPA Collaboration Features

Unlimited Transfer Capacity – Share sensitive data securely with no cap on file size. Google Drive has a 750GB/day limit, while WeTransfer free restricts to 2GB.

Branded, Compliant Portals – Collect files through encrypted upload points tailored to your business. This helps meet privacy regulations while offering professional presentation.

Not a File Archive – MX is intended for controlled transfers, not as an ongoing storage space like Dropbox or OneDrive.

CCPA Privacy Management

How MX Supports California privacy-first Compliance

California raises the bar. MX encrypts every exchange end to end, binds access to named people and produces a crisp audit trail that stands up to CCPA scrutiny while staying friendly to HIPAA, SOX and other rules.

HIPAA
Healthcare providers working in California juggle HIPAA and CCPA. MX encrypts patient files, logs every click and proves both sets of rules were respected without extra overhead.
CCPA
CCPA is the star here. MX makes it tangible by showing who accessed consumer data, when it happened and why. Permissions keep files under tight control so privacy is not just talk.
SOX
SOX compliance rides alongside CCPA for some firms. MX keeps financial records encrypted and creates trails that auditors can match against privacy logs.
GLBA
GLBA requires banks to protect customer records, and in California those obligations echo CCPA. MX provides encryption and access tracking that satisfies both.
FISMA
Federal contractors based in California deal with FISMA checks on top of CCPA. MX handles encrypted workflows and audit ready records, killing two birds with one stone.
FERPA
FERPA overlaps with state privacy laws when schools manage student data. MX encrypts records and ensures only the right staff have eyes on them.
ITAR
ITAR may feel far from CCPA, but defense firms in California face both. MX enforces encryption and geo filters that stand up to both regimes.
CJIS
CJIS obligations for agencies working in California tie into CCPA style privacy. MX locks down evidence files with encryption and full access logs.
IRS 1075
IRS 1075 does not bow to state law. MX ensures taxpayer files meet both federal and CCPA expectations with encryption and traceability.
NIST 800-171
NIST 800-171 compliance plus CCPA can feel like overload. MX provides encrypted sharing, permissions and logs that prove alignment with both standards.

FAQs

CCPA Requirements & File Sharing Practices
How does MX help businesses align with CCPA obligations?

Practical Alignment: MX supports CCPA by ensuring every transfer is encrypted, access-controlled, and logged. Businesses can demonstrate how personal data was shared, with whom, and for how long it remained accessible.

Transparency Built In: Clients requesting access or deletion under CCPA can be shown clear records of their file movements, reducing the administrative burden during compliance checks.

Read more about MX’s compliance features in our Features section.

Can MX demonstrate proof of how consumer data was handled?

Yes, Through Immutable Logs: MX records every stage of a transfer, including sender, recipient, timestamp, and access status. These logs can’t be altered, giving businesses reliable evidence when regulators or consumers ask for proof.

Defensible Records: Instead of manually piecing together email trails, firms can export a full audit in seconds, providing a much clearer response to CCPA inquiries.

For more on auditable records, visit our page on File Transfer Compliance.

Does MX limit unnecessary exposure of consumer information?

Yes, Short-Term Storage: MX holds files only long enough to complete a transfer. Once delivered, they are automatically removed, reducing the risk of consumer data sitting unprotected in long-term archives.

Why This Helps: CCPA emphasizes consumer rights to know how their data is stored and shared. By minimizing storage, MX reduces the chance of accidental disclosures or prolonged exposure.

Learn more in our article on secure storage practices.

How does MX support consumer rights requests under CCPA?

Clear Record Access: When a consumer requests details of how their data was used, MX provides straightforward audit logs that can be shared as evidence.

Right to Deletion: Since files are automatically removed after delivery, businesses avoid the challenge of purging long-held archives, making it easier to respond to deletion requests within legal timelines.

2
Risk Reduction & Business Benefits
How does MX reduce the risk of CCPA-related fines?

Preventing Costly Mistakes: CCPA fines can reach thousands of dollars per violation. MX lowers that risk by enforcing strict access controls, expiring file links, and automatic deletion once transfers are complete.

Audit-Ready Proof: If regulators request evidence, firms can provide detailed logs immediately. This helps demonstrate good faith compliance and reduces the chance of prolonged investigations.

What business advantage does CCPA alignment provide?

Competitive Edge: Consumers are more likely to trust a company that treats privacy as a priority. MX helps businesses show their clients exactly how information is protected, which can strengthen long-term relationships.

Operational Benefit: Instead of juggling manual processes, firms use MX to centralize secure exchanges. This saves time while presenting a polished, professional image to clients and partners.

See examples of trust-building in our Case Studies.

Does MX help businesses respond faster to data subject requests?

Yes, Streamlined Processes: MX’s audit logs and access controls make it easy to identify when, where, and how a consumer’s data was shared. This cuts down the time needed to answer requests under CCPA.

Practical Outcome: Faster responses reduce stress on compliance teams and show regulators that the business takes consumer rights seriously.

For more details on how MX simplifies compliance work, explore our Features page.

How does MX build long-term trust with clients under CCPA?

Transparency Matters: Clients know their personal data isn’t sitting in storage for years. MX’s temporary exchange model demonstrates responsible data handling from the start.

Confidence Through Branding: Firms can white-label MX, so clients see a professional, secure portal that feels like an extension of the business. This subtle reassurance often makes a real difference in client trust.
