Exin PDPF Exam - Topic 6 Question 41 Discussion

Actual exam question for Exin's PDPF exam
Question #: 41
Topic #: 6
[All PDPF Questions]

According to the GDPR, in what situation must data subjects always be notified of a personal data breach?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Data protection and privacy are complementary, but not the same thing.

A very repeated phrase is: ''It is possible to have security without privacy, but it is not possible to have privacy without security''.

Privacy is a right that must be protected, and Data Protection are the measures that will be used to achieve this protection.

I think I remember that data subjects need to be notified when there's a high risk to their privacy, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only condition.

I'm leaning towards option 3 or 4. The question says the internal audit activity "may" assess or perform advisory services, which suggests those are optional responsibilities, not required ones.
