The Electronic Transactions Act sounds familiar, but I feel like it might not be the right answer for this question.

I remember studying the Model Data Protection Code, but I can't recall if it was specifically related to "TrustSg."

I think the "TrustSg" mark was based on the Fair Information Practice Principles, but I'm not entirely sure.

I vaguely remember something about the 1995 European Directive, but I thought that was more about data protection in Europe, not e-commerce in Singapore.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to read the question again and try to recall the relevant information.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. The key is that a PHA or HAZOP is a more comprehensive analysis, so the answer must be B. Pha.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the options and think through the behavior of each method.
