Which of the following Convention 108+ principles, as amended in 2018, is NOT consistent with a principle found in the GDPR?

  1. The obligation of companies to declare data breaches.
  2. The requirement to demonstrate compliance to a supervisory authority.
  3. The necessity of the bulk collection of personal data by the government.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The Convention 108+ is the modernized version of the Council of Europe Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data, which was opened for signature on 10 October 20181. The Convention 108+ aims to reinforce the individuals' protection, strengthen the implementation of the Convention, and promote it as a universal standard for data protection. The Convention 108+ reflects the same principles as those enshrined in the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies from 25 May 20183. Therefore, the

Convention 108+ and the GDPR are largely consistent and coherent in their provisions and objectives.
However, one of the principles of the Convention 108+ that is not consistent with a principle found in the GDPR is the necessity of the bulk collection of personal data by the government. The Convention 108+ allows for the possibility of bulk collection of personal data by the government for national security purposes, subject to certain safeguards and oversight mechanisms. The GDPR, on the other hand, does not regulate the processing of personal data by the government for national security purposes, as this falls outside the scope of EU law. The GDPR also does not explicitly endorse the bulk collection of personal data by the government, but rather requires that any processing of personal data must be based on a legal basis, respect the principles of data protection, and ensure the rights and freedoms of data subjects. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

An entity's website stores text files on EU users' computer and mobile device browsers. Prior to doing so, the entity is required to provide users with notices containing information and consent under which of the following frameworks?

  1. General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679.
  2. E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC.
  3. E-Commerce Directive 2000/31/E
  4. Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Hello, this is Bing. I can help you with your question by providing you with some relevant information from the web. However, I cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information, and I cannot verify the answer for you. You should always consult the official sources and documents for the CIPP/E certification exam.
Based on my web search results, the most likely answer is B. E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC. Here is a summary of why:
The E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC1 is a specific legal framework that complements and particularizes the general data protection principles set out in the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC1 (which has been replaced by the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/6792). The E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC1 covers the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector, including the use of cookies and similar technologies.
Article 5.3 of the E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC1 states that the storing of information, or the gaining of access to information already stored, in the terminal equipment of a subscriber or user is only allowed on condition that the subscriber or user concerned has given his or her consent, having been provided with clear and comprehensive information. Therefore, an entity's website that stores text files (such as cookies) on EU users' computer and mobile device browsers must comply with the E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC1 and provide users with notices containing information and consent before doing so.



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

  1. Providing a multi-layered privacy notice, in a website environment.
  2. Providing a QR code linking to more detailed privacy notice, in a CCTV sign.
  3. Providing a hyperlink to the organization's home page, in a hard copy application form.
  4. Providing a "just-in-time" contextual pop-up privacy notice, in an online application from field.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

According to the transparency principle, data controllers must provide clear and transparent information to data subjects about how their personal data is processed. This information must be easily accessible and easy to understand. Providing a hyperlink to the organization's home page, in a hard copy application form, is not considered a fair processing practice in relation to the transparency principle, because it does not directly inform the data subject about the specific purposes and legal basis of the processing, the data protection rights and obligations, and the contact details of the data controller and the data protection officer. This information should be provided in a concise, intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language, in a way that is appropriate to the means of communication. Providing a hyperlink to the organization's home page, in a hard copy application form, does not meet these criteria and may also be inaccessible to some data subjects who do not have internet access or are not familiar with the use of hyperlinks. Therefore, this option is not a fair processing practice in relation to the transparency principle.
