Discuss Cisco 200-201 Exam Topic 4 Question 127

A data privacy officer at a marketing firm has received a request from a former client to delete all personally sensitive information held by the company. The firm operates globally and follows international data protection standards. The only information retained about the client is a unique customer ID, "051473912", which is not directly tied to the name, address, or any other identifiable details. Which action should the data privacy officer take?

ADelete the data immediately to comply with all global privacy regulations.

BRetain the data, as a customer ID by itself does not qualify as PSI under international standards.

CConsult the legal team, as customer IDs are always considered PSI and cannot be retained.

DDelete the data if the customer ID is stored alongside additional information that can identify the client.

Suggested Answer: D

I recall that if the customer ID is stored with other identifiable info, it definitely counts as personal data. But if it's alone, maybe we can keep it?

I feel like the safest option is to consult the legal team. There might be nuances in the regulations that I'm not fully clear on.

I think I came across a similar question where the focus was on whether the data could identify someone. If the ID is truly anonymous, maybe we don't need to delete it?

I remember studying that customer IDs can sometimes be considered personal data if they can be linked back to an individual. I'm not sure if that's the case here.
