D seems like a responsibility of supervisory authorities, so I guess that leaves B as the most likely answer, but I’m still a bit confused.

I'm leaning towards C because I recall that notifying data subjects about breaches is usually handled by the controllers themselves, not the member states.

Wait, I'm not sure. Is a boilerplate clause a warranty clause or something that allows the contract to be modified? I don't want to overthink this, but I want to make sure I understand the concept before selecting an answer.
