Questio n:
Considering the GDPR's territorial scope and the data processing agreement between COR Bank and Tibko, which of the following best describes Tibko's obligations under the GDPR?
Under Article 3(2) of GDPR, GDPR applies extraterritorially if an entity outside the EU processes personal data of EU residents on behalf of a controller subject to GDPR. Tibko processes COR Bank's client data, making it subject to GDPR as a processor under Article 28.
Option C is correct because Tibko must comply with GDPR since it processes EU data on behalf of COR Bank.
Option A is incorrect because processors must comply with broader GDPR obligations, not just technical safeguards.
Option B is incorrect because processors do not determine the purpose of processing; that is the controller's responsibility.
Option D is incorrect because location outside the EU does not exempt processors from GDPR obligations.
