entityQuery is one of the most used functions in Drupal. It helps you easily pull Drupal entities in code. But when you use this in contexts other than controllers, say in cron-jobs or update hooks where the system is accessed as anonymous users, it may not work as expected in Drupal 9 Unless you call accessCheck explicitly. This short article talks about how to use entityQuery in these contexts and write entityQuery compatible with Drupal 10.x

What is the difference between the CCPA and GDPR? The CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) and GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) are both privacy laws that give individuals more control over their personal information. However, there are several key differences between the two regulations: Geographical Scope: The CCPA applies to California residents and businesses operating in California, while the GDPR applies to all EU citizens and businesses operating in the EU. Right to Access: Both laws give individuals the right to access their personal information, but the CCPA also gives individuals the right to request information about what personal information businesses have collected about them. Right to Deletion: Both laws give individuals the right to request the deletion of their personal information, but the GDPR goes further by requiring businesses to delete personal information if there is no compelling reason to retain it. Right to Opt-Out: The CCPA gives individuals the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information, while the GDPR does not have a specific opt-out provision. Penalties: Both laws provide for significant penalties for non-compliance, but the GDPR has higher potential fines, up to 4% of a company's global annual revenue.   How do the CCPA and GDPR impact businesses? The CCPA and GDPR both have a significant impact on businesses. Some of the ways in which businesses are impacted by these regulations include: Compliance Requirements: Both regulations have strict requirements for businesses to follow in order to comply with the laws. This can be time-consuming and resource-intensive for businesses, especially for those that collect and process a large amount of personal data. Data Management: Businesses must have processes in place to manage personal data in accordance with the CCPA and GDPR. This includes collecting, storing, and processing data securely, as well as responding to individual's requests for information and deletion of their personal data. Legal Liability: Failure to comply with the CCPA and GDPR can result in significant legal liability, including fines and damage to reputation. Data Portability: Both regulations give individuals the right to receive a copy of their personal information in a commonly used and machine-readable format. Businesses must have processes in place to allow for this data portability. Marketing Practices: The CCPA gives individuals the right to opt-out of the sale of their personal information. This means that businesses that engage in such practices must have processes in place to handle opt-out requests.   Similarities Between CCPA and GDPR There are several similarities between the CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) and the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), two privacy laws that give individuals more control over their personal information: Purpose: Both laws aim to give individuals more control over their personal information and to increase transparency and accountability in the way that personal information is collected, stored, and processed by businesses. Individual Rights: Both laws give individuals several rights related to their personal information, including the right to access, the right to request deletion, and the right to opt-out of certain data processing activities. Penalties for Non-Compliance: Both laws provide for significant penalties for non-compliance, including fines and damage to reputation. Impact on Businesses: Both laws impact businesses by requiring them to take steps to protect the personal information of individuals and to be transparent about their data practices. Data Protection Officer: Both laws require certain businesses to appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing data protection activities and ensuring compliance with the law.   Frequently Asked Questions About CCPA and GDPR.
