The Data Processing cycle is acquisition - processing - reporting- storing. Do learn this off by heart. The term processing means anything from using data, to altering it, to moving it or publishing it. Data controller is a person or organisation that determines how the data is processed, but it's rarely used as a verb (you don't say I'm 'controlling' the data'). P. 121

I feel like "Processing" is a given, but I can't recall if "Controlling" was mentioned in our notes.

I've got a good handle on the data processing lifecycle, so I'm confident I can identify the right answer here. Let me review the options and select the ones that match up with the main stages.

Acquisition, processing, and storing - those seem like the key steps to me. The other options like reporting and controlling are important but not directly part of the core data processing workflow.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Data processing covers a lot of different stages, so I'll need to think carefully about which of these options are truly part of that process versus other related activities.

This looks like a straightforward question on the steps involved in data processing. I'll start by carefully reading through each option and thinking about which ones are core parts of the data processing workflow.

C) Controlling? Really? I thought that was more of a management thing, not part of the actual data processing itself.

E) Storing is also important, otherwise where would we keep all that data? Gotta have a place to put it, you know?
