Actual exam question for Exin's PDPF exam
Question #: 80
Topic #: 7
[All PDPF Questions]

A person finds that a private videotape showing her in a very intimate situation has been published on a website. She never consented to publication and demands that the video is being removed without undue delay.

According to the GDPR, what should be done next?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Controller: Correct. The controller determines the purpose and means of the processing. (Literature: A, Chapter 1; GDPR Article 4(7))

Processor: Incorrect. The controller determines the purpose of the processing, the processor works on the controller's instructions.

Supervisory authority: Incorrect. The supervisory authority monitors and enforces compliance with the GDPR requirements.

Third party: Incorrect. A third party has no role in determining the purpose of the processing. Any party that determines the purpose would become a new controller.

Actually, the website might argue freedom of expression here.

I feel like option C could be misleading. If the video is removed, shouldn't they also inform others who might have it? That seems important for privacy protection.

I'm a bit uncertain about option A. It seems like freedom of expression could apply, but I thought personal privacy would take precedence in this case?

I remember a similar question where the focus was on consent and privacy rights. I feel like the controller has to act quickly, which makes me lean towards B as well.

I think the GDPR emphasizes the right to erasure, so maybe option B is correct? But I'm not entirely sure about the specifics.

I've reviewed the GDPR section on this type of situation before. I think I know the right approach, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. The key is to focus on the individual's rights and the controller's obligations under the GDPR.

Option A? Are you kidding me? Letting a non-consensual intimate video stay up because it's 'news'? Someone's been watching too much 'Black Mirror'.

Option D? Really? Sending the person to a lawyer and waiting for a court order? Talk about bureaucracy gone wild. Just take the video down, it's the right thing to do!

I'm going with option C. Why should the controller have to track down and inform every other controller? That seems like a lot of work, and they already erased the video, so that's good enough.

A: I think option C is the best choice. The controller already erased the video, so they shouldn't have to inform others.

I don't know, option A seems reasonable to me. The website has a right to freedom of expression, right? What do I know, I'm just a candidate.

C) The controller erases the video from the website. There is no obligation to inform others who might have copied it, that it should be erased.

I think option B is more appropriate. The controller should erase the video and inform others who might process it to do the same.

A) Nothing. The video may be regarded as 'news' and, therefore, the website is only exercising its right to freedom of expression and information.

Option B is clearly the correct answer. The GDPR requires the controller to erase the video and inform any other controllers who might have it. Anything less is unacceptable.
