IAPP Information Privacy Technologist CIPT Question # 10 Topic 2 Discussion

To meet data protection and privacy legal requirements regarding the disposal or deletion of personal data when it is no longer necessary, the best privacy-enhancing solution involves integrating robust application logic. Option C suggests developing application logic that validates and purges personal data according to its legal hold status or retention schedule. This approach ensures compliance with legal mandates for data retention and deletion, minimizing the risk of retaining unnecessary personal data. References to this can be found in IAPP’s CIPT materials, specifically in the sections discussing data lifecycle management and legal compliance requirements.
