What is the meaning of mail in the CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018)?
<p>The <a href="https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CCPA</a> states that under section <a href="https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=1798.130.&amp;lawCode=CIV" rel="nofollow noreferrer">1798.130(2)</a> customers can request their data <strong>BY_MAIL OR BY ELECTRONIC MEANS</strong> as the <strong>customer</strong> chooses.
<br>
However NOWHERE on any website can I find a  button or form to demand information via physical mail and on top of that this is economically  infeasible for businesses that are small g     frm.
<br>
Is everyone non-compliant mr or am I getting something wrong?
<br>
<strong>I am talking about ip logs mainly here.</strong></p>

<p>You're misreading the law.  You need to keep reading the section you referenced (emphasis added):</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The disclosure...shall be made in writing and delivered through the consumer’s account with the business, if the consumer maintains an account with the business, or by mail or electronically at the consumer’s option <strong>if the consumer does not maintain an account with the business</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Thus, the option to have the disclosure sent by mail only applies to consumers who do not have an account with the business.  Since presumably a large number of sites only maintain personal information for users with accounts, such sites need not provide a mail option.  Further, it doesn't say there needs to be a button: you just need the ability to say you'd like it mailed to you in the request somehow, and then they need to comply when you do.</p>
