IAPP CIPM Practice Test 34
Question 330
A privacy program manager faces this situation: A recruitment system archives candidate files after applications close. Which operational step would BEST implement the right approach? Select ONE best answer.
- Map differences and approve compliant harmonized schedules
- Map remote access, data categories, lawful transfer mechanisms and security controls
- Review the processing agreement and prohibit unauthorized secondary purposes
- Trace archival copies, retention exceptions and approved deletion steps
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:Trace archival copies, retention exceptions and approved deletion steps is the best practical implementation step. The governing consideration is: Lifecycle risk extends past active application storage into logs, backups and exports.
Incorrect Answers
A:Map differences and approve compliant harmonized schedules concerns Post-merger control harmonization assessment, but is not the most directly responsive practical implementation step. The best selection is: Trace archival copies, retention exceptions and approved deletion steps. The differentiating privacy consideration is: Lifecycle risk extends past active application storage into logs, backups and exports. The case should be checked through this outcome: The record lifecycle specifies when each stored copy becomes eligible for disposal.
B:That option would map remote access, data categories, lawful transfer mechanisms and security controls, but it addresses a different concern. Lifecycle risk extends past active application storage into logs, backups and exports.
C:That option would review the processing agreement and prohibit unauthorized secondary purposes, but it addresses a different concern. Lifecycle risk extends past active application storage into logs, backups and exports.
Question 331
