DROP penalty calculator

California's Delete Act fines a broker $200 per deletion request, per day for failing to process DROP requests. See how fast it compounds.

500,000+ Californians have signed up so far. A broker holding roughly 100k California records typically sees a few hundred per cycle, size this to your own data.

The clock runs from the 45-day processing deadline for each retrieved batch.

Estimated processing exposure
$336,000

120 requests × 14 days × $200/request/day

Failure-to-register fine (separate)
$2,800

A flat $200/day just for not being registered, before any deletion processing.

A year of PrivacyClock, for comparison
$3,588

vs. $7,000/yr you already pay in state registration fees across four states.

Even a modest backlog is company-ending math. The point of the 45-day cycle isn't the fee schedule. It's that you can never afford to miss one. That's the entire reason to automate it.
