    B: Defines strategy and takes decisions on privacy-related matters

    C: Enables execution of policies to handle operational privacy incidents

    D: Ensures that privacy accountability is not overlooked

Question 2

Which of the following is not in line with the modern definition of Consent?

  1. Option A:

    Consent is taken by clear and affirmative action

  2. Option B:

    Consenting individual should have the ability to withdraw consent

  3. Option C:

    Consent should be bundled in nature

  4. Option D:

    Purpose of processing should be informed to the individual before consenting

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

The modern definition of consent, as defined under the DSCI Privacy Framework and GDPR, includes the following criteria:

    It must be freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous

    It must be indicated by a clear affirmative action

    Individuals must be able to withdraw consent at any time

    It must not be bundled or forced (e.g., acceptance of multiple processing purposes without choice)

Bundled consent—where the individual must consent to multiple unrelated data processing purposes together—is not aligned with the requirement of specific and informed consent. Hence, Option C is incorrect.
