    SCENARIO

    Please use the following to answer the next question:

    Jordan just joined a fitness-tracker start-up based in California, USA, as its first Information Privacy and Security Officer. The company is quickly growing its business but does not sell any of the fitness trackers itself. Instead, it relies on a distribution network of third-party retailers in all major countries. Despite not having any stores, the company has a 78% market share in the EU. It has a website presenting the company and products, and a member section where customers can access their information. Only the email address and physical address need to be provided as part of the registration process in order to customize the site to the user's region and country. There is also a newsletter sent every month to all members featuring fitness tips, nutrition advice, product spotlights from partner companies based on user behavior and preferences.

    Jordan says the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) does not apply to the company. He says the company is not established in the EU, nor does it have a processor in the region. Furthermore, it does not do any "offering goods or services" in the EU since it does not do any marketing there, nor sell to consumers directly. Jordan argues that it is the customers who chose to buy the products on their own initiative and there is no "offering" from the company.

    The fitness trackers incorporate advanced features such as sleep tracking, GPS tracking, heart rate monitoring. wireless syncing, calorie-counting and step-tracking. The watch must be paired with either a smartphone or a computer in order to collect data on sleep levels, heart rates, etc. All information from the device must be sent to the company's servers in order to be processed, and then the results are sent to the smartphone or computer. Jordan argues that there is no personal information involved since the company does not collect banking or social security information.

    Why is Jordan's claim that the company does not collect personal information as identified by the GDPR inaccurate?

    A. The potential customers must browse for products online.

    B. The fitness trackers capture sleep and heart rate data to monitor an individual's behavior.

  • Question 195:

    SCENARIO

    Wesley Energy has finally made its move, acquiring the venerable oil and gas exploration firm Lancelot from its long-time owner David Wilson. As a member of the transition team, you have come to realize that Wilson's quirky nature affected even Lancelot's data practices, which are maddeningly inconsistent. "The old man hired and fired IT people like he was changing his necktie," one of Wilson's seasoned lieutenants tells you, as you identify the traces of initiatives left half complete.

    For instance, while some proprietary data and personal information on clients and employees is encrypted, other sensitive information, including health information from surveillance testing of employees for toxic exposures, remains unencrypted, particularly when included within longer records with less-sensitive data. You also find that data is scattered across applications, servers and facilities in a manner that at first glance seems almost random.

    Among your preliminary findings of the condition of data at Lancelot are the following: Cloud technology is supplied by vendors around the world, including firms that you have not heard of. You are told by a former Lancelot employee that these vendors operate with divergent security requirements and protocols. The company's proprietary recovery process for shale oil is stored on servers among a variety of less-sensitive information that can be accessed not only by scientists, but by personnel of all types at most company locations. DES is the strongest encryption algorithm currently used for any file. Several company facilities lack physical security controls, beyond visitor check-in, which familiar vendors often bypass. Fixing all of this will take work, but first you need to grasp the scope of the mess and formulate a plan of action to address it.

    Which procedure should be employed to identify the types and locations of data held by Wesley Energy?

    A. Privacy audit.

    B. Log collection

    C. Data inventory.

    D. Data classification.

  • Question 196:

    B. A drone flying over a building site to gather data.

    C. Drones delivering retailers' packages to private homes.

    D. Drones communicating with each other to perform a search and rescue.

  • Question 197:

    Organizations understand there are aggregation risks associated with the way the process their customer's data. They typically include the details of this aggregation risk in a privacy notice and ask that all customers acknowledge they

    understand these risks and consent to the processing.

    What type of risk response does this notice and consent represent?

    A. Risk transfer.

    B. Risk mitigation.

    C. Risk avoidance.

    D. Risk acceptance.

  • Question 198:

    SCENARIO

    Please use the following to answer the next question:

    Chuck, a compliance auditor for a consulting firm focusing on healthcare clients, was required to travel to the client's office to perform an onsite review of the client's operations. He rented a car from Finley Motors upon arrival at the airport as so he could commute to and from the client's office. The car rental agreement was electronically signed by Chuck and included his name, address, driver's license, make/model of the car, billing rate, and additional details describing the rental transaction. On the second night, Chuck was caught by a red light camera not stopping at an intersection on his way to dinner. Chuck returned the car back to the car rental agency at the end week without mentioning the infraction and Finley Motors emailed a copy of the final receipt to the address on file.

    Local law enforcement later reviewed the red light camera footage. As Finley Motors is the registered owner of the car, a notice was sent to them indicating the infraction and fine incurred. This notice included the license plate number, occurrence date and time, a photograph of the driver, and a web portal link to a video clip of the violation for further review. Finley Motors, however, was not responsible for the violation as they were not driving the car at the time and transferred the incident to AMP Payment Resources for further review. AMP Payment Resources identified Chuck as the driver based on the rental agreement he signed when picking up the car and then contacted Chuck directly through a written letter regarding the infraction to collect the fine.

    After reviewing the incident through the AMP Payment Resources' web portal, Chuck paid the fine using his personal credit card. Two weeks later, Finley Motors sent Chuck an email promotion offering 10% off a future rental.

    What is the strongest method for authenticating Chuck's identity prior to allowing access to his violation information through the AMP Payment Resources web portal?

    A. By requiring Chuck use the last 4 digits of his driver's license number in combination with a unique PIN provided within the violation notice.

    B. By requiring Chuck use his credit card number in combination with the last 4 digits of his driver's license.

    C. By requiring Chuck use the rental agreement number in combination with his email address.

    D. By requiring Chuck to call AMP Payment Resources directly and provide his date of birth and home address.

    Statement 1 reads: "Please check this box to confirm you have read and accept the terms and conditions of the end user license agreement" and includes a hyperlink to the terms and conditions.
