Purgepath’s California DROP scrubbing API
A California DROP compliance API for data brokers that checks records or CSV uploads against the state deletion list and returns matches marked for deletion.
- For
- California data brokers processing DROP deletion requests
- Worth noticing
- The page says records are normalized before hashing and past requests remain on file to screen newly acquired data.
Field notes
The workflow starts with a one-time connection to a broker’s DROP account, then accepts individual records, feeds, or CSV uploads for matching. The page says records are normalized to state formatting rules before hashing, and that prior requests remain in the suppression list so later-acquired data can be screened. It also describes timestamped scrub records for audit review; the displayed request and response are explicitly labeled illustrative.
