IAPP CIPM Practice Test 30
Question 290
A privacy program manager faces this situation: A new regional privacy rule may affect a company's analytics retention process. Which operational step would BEST implement the right approach? Select ONE best answer.
- Assign legal monitoring, applicability assessment and controlled policy update
