PDPF Exam Dumps : Privacy and Data Protection Foundation

This is an issue that addresses two very important points – sensitive data and data from minors.

As these are, it is necessary to inform the Supervisory Authority and those responsible for the data subjects. Article 34 mentions:

1. When the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller shall communicate the personal data breach to the data subject without undue delay.

Recital 38 says:

Children merit specific protection regarding their personal data, as they may be less aware of the risks, consequences and safeguards concerned and their rights in relation to the processing of personal data. Such specific protection should, in particular, apply to the use of personal data of children for the purposes of marketing or creating personality or user profiles and the collection of personal data with regard to children when using services offered directly to a child. The consent of the holder of parental responsibility should not be necessary in the context of preventive or counselling services offered directly to a child.

The GDPR is functional law in all member states of the EEA. Some Articles allow for member states law to provide for more specific rules. Correct. The GDPR is European law but the Regulation does not exclude Member state law that sets out the circumstances for specific processing situations. (Literature: A, Chapter 1; GDPR Recital 10)

The GDPR is a recommendation of the European Commission that EEA countries’ law authorities improve their laws on the protection of personal data. Incorrect. An EU recommendation is not binding. The GDPR is a functional European law in all member states.

The GDPR sets out minimum conditions and requirements. Member states need to pass national laws to meet these minimum requirements. Incorrect. This is the description of an EU Directive.
