CIPP-US Exam Topic 2 Question 15 Discussion:
Question #: 15
Topic #: 2
Based on the 2012 Federal Trade Commission report “Protecting Consumer Privacy in an Era of Rapid Change”, which of the following directives is most important for businesses?
A.
Announcing the tracking of online behavior for advertising purposes.
B.
Integrating privacy protections during product development.
C.
Allowing consumers to opt in before collecting any data.
D.
Mitigating harm to consumers after a security breach.
According to the FTC report, the most important directive for businesses is to adopt a “privacy by design” approach, which means integrating privacy protections throughout the entire product lifecycle, from initial design to disposal. This includes implementing reasonable security measures, collecting only the data needed for a specific purpose, retaining data only as long as necessary, and safely disposing of data that is no longer needed. The FTC report also recommends that businesses provide clear and transparent privacy notices, offer consumers meaningful choices about how their data is used, and increase their accountability for data practices.
