I heard the data intermediary tried to process the data through a blender. Guess they didn't realize that's not how you 'process' information.

Definitely D. The intermediary can't just do whatever it wants with the data - it has to stick to the agreed-upon contract.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and D. But I'll go with D since the intermediary needs to follow the contract terms.

Option C seems like the right choice. The intermediary should inform the individual that it is processing their data on behalf of a controller.

I believe option A is also important. Providing access to one's own data is a fundamental right under the PDPA.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be D) When it processes data contrary to the provisions established in the contract. That seems like a serious breach too.

I agree with Sherill. If the data intermediary in Singapore doesn't provide access to data, they should be liable for breaches against the PDPA.
