Do Businesses Still Have to Handle Deletion Requests Outside of DROP?

Yes. DROP does not replace existing consumer rights.

Businesses must still:

• Accept deletion and opt-out requests through their website or other contact methods.

• Respond within required timeframes.

• Maintain privacy policy disclosures.

DROP is an additional requirement, not a substitute.
