Twitter is set to update its privacy policies globally for the sole purpose of giving users more information about what data advertisers might receive. The company is also launching a site that will provide clarity on its data protection efforts.

The new privacy policies, which are scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2020, would be complying with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

According to the company, the privacy updates would give Twitter the flexibility to test different settings and controls with users, such as additional opt-in or opt-out privacy preferences, that would likely be restricted by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Europe’s landmark digital privacy law.
