  • Question 18

    SCENARIO
    WebTracker Limited is a cloud-based online marketing service located in London. Last year, WebTracker migrated its IT infrastructure to the cloud provider AmaZure, which provides SQL Databases and Artificial Intelligence services to WebTracker. The roles and responsibilities between the two companies have been formalized in a standard contract, which includes allocating the role of data controller to WebTracker.
    The CEO of WebTracker, Mr. Bond, would like to assess the effectiveness of AmaZure's privacy controls, and he recently decided to hire you as an independent auditor. The scope of the engagement is limited only to the marketing services provided by WebTracker, you will not be evaluating any internal data processing activity, such as HR or Payroll.
    This ad-hoc audit was triggered due to a future partnership between WebTracker and SmartHome - a partnership that will not require any data sharing. SmartHome is based in the USA, and most recently has dedicated substantial resources to developing smart refrigerators that can suggest the recommended daily calorie intake based on DNA information. This and other personal data is collected by WebTracker.
    To get an idea of the scope of work involved, you have decided to start reviewing the company's documentation and interviewing key staff to understand potential privacy risks.
    The results of this initial work include the following notes:
    * There are several typos in the current privacy notice of WebTracker, and you were not able to find the privacy notice for SmartHome.
    * You were unable to identify all the sub-processors working for SmartHome. No subcontractor is indicated in the cloud agreement with AmaZure, which is responsible for the support and maintenance of the cloud infrastructure.
    * There are data flows representing personal data being collected from the internal employees of WebTracker, including an interface from the HR system.
    * Part of the DNA data collected by WebTracker was from employees, as this was a prototype approved by the CEO of WebTracker.
    * All the WebTracker and SmartHome customers are based in USA and Canada.
    Which of the following issues is most likely to require an investigation by the Chief Privacy Officer (CPO) of WebTracker?
  • Question 19

    SCENARIO - Please use the following to answer the next question:
    Clean-Q is a company that offers house-hold and office cleaning services. The company receives requests from consumers via their website and telephor, to book cleaning services. Based on the type and size of service, Clean-Q then contracts individuals that are registered on its resource database - currently managed in-house by Clean-Q IT Support. Because of Clean-Q:s business.
    model, resources are contracted as needed instead of permanently employed.
    The table below indicates some of the personal information Clean-Q requires as part of its business operations:

    Clean-Q has an internal employee base of about 30 people. A recent privacy compliance exercise has been conducted to align employee data management and human resource functions with applicable data protection regulation.
    Therefore, the Clean-Q permanent employee base is not included as part of this scenario.
    With an increase in construction work and housing developments, Clean-Q has had an influx of requests for cleaning services. The demand has overwhelmed Clean-Q:s traditional supply and demand system that has caused some overlapping bookings.
    In a business statrategy session held by senior management recently, Clearning invited vendors to present potential solutions to their current operational issues. These vendors includes included Application development and Cloud solution providers, presenting their proposed solution and platforms.
    The Managing Direct opted to initiate the process to integrate Clean-Q's operations with a cloud solution (LeadOps) that will provide the following solution one single online platform. A web interface that Clean-Q accesses for the purposes of resource and customer management. This would entail uploading resource and customer information.
    A customer facing web interface that enables customers to register, manage and submit cleaning service requests online.
    A resource facing web interface that enables resources to apply and manage their assigned jobs.
    An online payment facility for customer to pay for services.
    Which question would you most likely ask to gain more insight about LeadOps and provide practical privacy recommendations?
  • Question 20

    SCENARIO
    Carol was a U.S.-based glassmaker who sold her work at art festivals. She kept things simple by only accepting cash and personal checks.
    As business grew, Carol couldn't keep up with demand, and traveling to festivals became burdensome. Carol opened a small boutique and hired Sam to run it while she worked in the studio. Sam was a natural salesperson, and business doubled. Carol told Sam, "I don't know what you are doing, but keep doing it!" But months later, the gift shop was in chaos. Carol realized that Sam needed help so she hired Jane, who had business expertise and could handle the back-office tasks. Sam would continue to focus on sales. Carol gave Jane a few weeks to get acquainted with the artisan craft business, and then scheduled a meeting for the three of them to discuss Jane's first impressions.
    At the meeting, Carol could not wait to hear Jane's thoughts, but she was unprepared for what Jane had to say. "Carol, I know that he doesn't realize it, but some of Sam's efforts to increase sales have put you in a vulnerable position. You are not protecting customers' personal information like you should." Sam said, "I am protecting our information. I keep it in the safe with our bank deposit. It's only a list of customers' names, addresses and phone numbers that I get from their checks before I deposit them. I contact them when you finish a piece that I think they would like. That's the only information I have! The only other thing I do is post photos and information about your work on the photo sharing site that I use with family and friends. I provide my email address and people send me their information if they want to see more of your work. Posting online really helps sales, Carol. In fact, the only complaint I hear is about having to come into the shop to make a purchase." Carol replied, "Jane, that doesn't sound so bad. Could you just fix things and help us to post even more online?"
    'I can," said Jane. "But it's not quite that simple. I need to set up a new program to make sure that we follow the best practices in data management. And I am concerned for our customers. They should be able to manage how we use their personal information. We also should develop a social media strategy." Sam and Jane worked hard during the following year. One of the decisions they made was to contract with an outside vendor to manage online sales. At the end of the year, Carol shared some exciting news. "Sam and Jane, you have done such a great job that one of the biggest names in the glass business wants to buy us out! And Jane, they want to talk to you about merging all of our customer and vendor information with theirs beforehand." When initially collecting personal information from customers, what should Jane be guided by?
