Processing can't be unlawful if consent is given, right?

I disagree, consent should always be withdrawable.

Surprised that archiving in the public interest can restrict consent!

Yeah, absence of overriding grounds is key here.

It's mainly when there are legitimate grounds!

I vaguely recall that unlawful processing might not allow for consent withdrawal, but I’m not entirely confident about that.

I’m a bit confused about the archiving part. Is it really possible to prohibit withdrawal of consent just because data is archived for public interest?

I feel like there was a practice question about when consent can be revoked, and it mentioned legitimate grounds. Could that be related to option C?

I think I remember something about consent being tied to the necessity of data, but I'm not sure if that's the right context here.

This is a good test of our knowledge of the data privacy rules. I'm feeling confident I can work through the options and identify the correct scenario where consent withdrawal is prohibited.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. The key is looking for the conditions where data subjects can't withdraw consent, like if the processing is necessary or there are legitimate grounds to continue.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to double-check my notes on the data protection regulations to make sure I understand the nuances around consent withdrawal.

This seems like a tricky question about data privacy laws. I'll need to carefully review the options and think through the key criteria for when consent withdrawal can be prohibited.

Haha, I bet the data subjects are just dying to withdraw consent. Get it? Dying? Because it's about personal data? Anyway, I think C is the right answer.

Yeah, I agree. When there is an absence of overriding legitimate grounds, data subjects can be prohibited from withdrawing consent.

This is a tricky one, but I'd go with B. If the processing is unlawful, the data subject shouldn't be able to withdraw consent and enable illegal activities.

I'm not sure about A, but I agree with B. Unlawful processing should definitely restrict consent withdrawal.

That's a good point. Maybe A is also a valid reason to prohibit withdrawal.

But what if the data is no longer necessary? Wouldn't that be a valid reason to prohibit withdrawal of consent?

I think B makes sense. If it's unlawful, there should be consequences.

D seems like the best option to me. If the data is being archived for the public good, then the data subject's right to withdraw consent can be limited.

I see your point, Alline. It's important to consider legitimate grounds before allowing data subjects to withdraw consent.

I believe data subjects can also be prohibited from withdrawing consent when there is an absence of overriding legitimate grounds.

I agree with Jillian. If the processing is unlawful, it makes sense to prohibit data subjects from withdrawing consent.

I think the correct answer is C. The data subject should have the right to withdraw consent unless there are legitimate grounds that override their interests.
BE

Yes, it's crucial to balance the data subject's rights with any legitimate reasons for prohibiting the withdrawal of consent.

That makes sense, so it's important to consider those overriding legitimate grounds when determining if consent can be withdrawn.
