Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

A jurisdiction requiring an organization to place a link on the website that allows a consumer to opt-out of sharing is an example of a technical requirement. This requirement involves implementing a specific functionality within the website's infrastructure to enable consumers to exercise their data protection rights easily. The IAPP's CIPT materials discuss various types of privacy requirements, highlighting that technical requirements often involve the development and deployment of specific technological solutions to meet regulatory mandates.
