  • Question 182:

    SCENARIO

    Please use the following to answer the next question:

    Joe is the new privacy manager for Who-R-U, a Canadian business that provides DNA analysis. The company is headquartered in Montreal, and all of its employees are located there. The company offers its services to Canadians only: Its

    website is in English and French, it accepts only Canadian currency, and it blocks internet traffic from outside of Canada (although this solution doesn't prevent all non-Canadian traffic). It also declines to process orders that request the DNA

    report to be sent outside of Canada, and returns orders that show a non-Canadian return address.

    Bob, the President of Who-R-U, thinks there is a lot of interest for the product in the EU, and the company is exploring a number of plans to expand its customer base.

    The first plan, collegially called We-Track-U, will use an app to collect information about its current Canadian customer base. The expansion will allow its Canadian customers to use the app while traveling abroad. He

    suggests that the company use this app to gather location information. If the plan shows promise, Bob proposes to use push notifications and text messages to encourage existing customers to pre-register for an EU version of the service.

    Bob calls this work plan, We-Text-U. Once the company has gathered enough pre-registrations, it will develop EU-specific content and services.

    Another plan is called Customer for Life. The idea is to offer additional services through the company's app, like storage and sharing of DNA information with other applications and medical providers. The company's contract says that it can

    keep customer DNA indefinitely, and use it to offer new services and market them to customers. It also says that customers agree not to withdraw direct marketing consent. Paul, the marketingdirector, suggests that the company should fully

    exploit these provisions, and that it can work around customers' attempts to withdraw consent because the contract invalidates them.

    The final plan is to develop a brand presence in the EU. The company has already begun this process. It is in the process of purchasing the naming rights for a building in Germany, which would come with a few offices that Who-R-U

    executives can use while traveling internationally. The office doesn't include any technology or infrastructure; rather, it's simply a room with a desk and some chairs.

    On a recent trip concerning the naming-rights deal, Bob's laptop is stolen. The laptop held unencrypted DNA reports on 5,000 Who-R-U customers, all of whom are residents of Canada. The reports include customer name, birthdate, ethnicity,

    racial background, names of relatives, gender, and occasionally health information.

    If Who-R-U adopts the We-Track-U pilot plan, why is it likely to be subject to the territorial scope of the GDPR?

    A. Its plan would be in the context of the establishment of a controller in the Union.

    B. It would be offering goods or services to data subjects in the Union.

    C. It is engaging in commercial activities conducted in the Union.

    D. It is monitoring the behavior of data subjects in the Union.

  • Question 183:

    A company wishes to transfer personal data to a country outside of the European Union/EEA In order to do so, they are planning an assessment of the country's laws and practices, knowing that these may impinge upon the transfer safeguards they intend to use

    All of the following factors would be relevant for the company to consider EXCEPT'?

    A. Any onward transfers, such as transfers of personal data to a sub-processor in the same or another third country.

    B. The process of modernization in the third country concerned and their access to emerging technologies that rely on international transfers of personal data

    C. The technical, financial, and staff resources available to an authority m the third country concerned that may access the personal data to be transferred

    D. The contractual clauses between the data controller or processor established in the European Union/EEA and the recipient of the transfer established in the third country concerned

  • Question 184:

    Which of the following would NOT be relevant when determining if a processing activity would be considered profiling?

    A. If the processing is to be performed by a third-party vendor

    B. If the processing involves data that is considered personal data

    C. If the processing of the data is done through automated means

    D. If the processing is used to predict the behavior of data subjects

  • Question 185:

    SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next question: You have just been hired by a toy manufacturer based in Hong Kong. The company sells a broad range of dolls, action figures and plush toys that can be found internationally in a wide variety of retail stores. Although the manufacturer has no

    offices outside Hong Kong and in fact does not employ any staff outside Hong Kong, it has entered into a number of local distribution contracts. The toys produced by the companycan be found in all popular toy stores throughout Europe, the

    United States and Asia. A large portion of the company's

    revenue is due to international sales.

    The company now wishes to launch a new range of connected toys, ones that can talk and interact with children. The CEO of the company is touting these toys as the next big thing, due to the increased possibilities offered: The figures can

    answer children's Questions: on various subjects, such as mathematical calculations or the weather. Each figure is equipped with a microphone and speaker and can connect to any smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth. Any mobile device

    within a 10-meter radius can connect to the toys via Bluetooth as well. The figures can also be associated with other figures (from the same manufacturer) and interact with each other for an enhanced play experience.

    When a child asks the toy a QUESTION, the request is sent to the cloud for analysis, and the answer is generated on cloud servers and sent back to the figure. The answer is given through the figure's integrated

    speakers, making it appear as though that the toy is actually responding to the child's QUESTION. The packaging of the toy does not provide technical details on how this works, nor does it mention that this feature requires an internet

    connection. The necessary data processing for this has been outsourced to a data center located in South Africa. However, your company has not yet revised its consumer-facing privacy policy to indicate this.

    In parallel, the company is planning to introduce a new range of game systems through which consumers can play the characters they acquire in the course of playing the game. The system will come bundled with a portal that includes a Near-Field Communications (NFC) reader. This device will read an RFID tag in the action figure, making the figure come to life onscreen. Each character has its own stock features and abilities, but it is also possible to earn additional ones by accomplishing game goals. The only information stored in the tag relates to the figures' abilities. It is easy to switch characters during the game, and it is possible to bring the figure to locations outside of the home and have the character's abilities remain intact.

    In light of the requirements of Article 32 of the GDPR (related to the Security of Processing), which practice should the company institute?

    A. Encrypt the data in transit over the wireless Bluetooth connection.

    B. Include dual-factor authentication before each use by a child in order to ensure a minimum amount of security.

    C. Include three-factor authentication before each use by a child in order to ensure the best level of security possible.

    D. Insert contractual clauses into the contract between the toy manufacturer and the cloud service provider, since South Africa is outside the European Union.

  • Question 186:

    When hiring a data processor, which action would a data controller NOT be able to depend upon to avoid liability in the event of a security breach?

    A. Documenting due diligence steps taken in the pre-contractual stage.

    B. Conducting a risk assessment to analyze possible outsourcing threats.

    C. Requiring that the processor directly notify the appropriate supervisory authority.

    D. Maintaining evidence that the processor was the best possible market choice available.

  • Question 187:

    Data retention in the EU was underpinned by a legal framework established by the Data Retention Directive (2006/24/EC). Why is the Directive no longer part of EU law?

    A. The Directive was superseded by the EU Directive on Privacy and Electronic Communications.

    B. The Directive was superseded by the General Data Protection Regulation.

    C. The Directive was annulled by the Court of Justice of the European Union.

    D. The Directive was annulled by the European Court of Human Rights.

  • Question 188:

    Which of the following is NOT recognized as being a common characteristic of cloud-computing services?

    A. The service's infrastructure is shared among the supplier's customers and can be located in a number of countries.

    B. The supplier determines the location, security measures, and service standards applicable to the processing.

    C. The supplier allows customer data to be transferred around the infrastructure according to capacity.

    D. The supplier assumes the vendor's business risk associated with data processed by the supplier.

  • Question 189:

    There are three domains of security covered by Article 32 of the GDPR that apply to both the controller and the processor. These include all of the following EXCEPT?

    A. Consent management and withdrawal.

    B. Incident detection and response.

    C. Preventative security.

    D. Remedial security.

  • Question 190:

    Which of the following is NOT considered a fair processing practice in relation to the transparency principle?

    A. Providing a multi-layered privacy notice, in a website environment.

    B. Providing a QR code linking to more detailed privacy notice, in a CCTV sign.

    C. Providing a hyperlink to the organization's home page, in a hard copy application form.

    D. Providing a "just-in-time" contextual pop-up privacy notice, in an online application from field.
