SCENARIO

Please use the following to answer the next QUESTION:

Manasa is a product manager at Omnipresent Omnimedia, where she is responsible for leading the development of the company's flagship product, the Handy Helper. The Handy Helper is an application that can be used in the home to manage family calendars, do online shopping, and schedule doctor appointments. After having had a successful launch in the United States, the Handy Helper is about to be made available for purchase worldwide.

The packaging and user guide for the Handy Helper indicate that it is a "privacy friendly" product suitable for the whole family, including children, but does not provide any further detail or privacy notice. In order to use the application, a family creates a single account, and the primary user has access to all information about the other users. Upon start up, the primary user must check a box consenting to receive marketing emails from Omnipresent Omnimedia and selected marketing partners in order to be able to use the application.

Sanjay, the head of privacy at Omnipresent Omnimedia, was working on an agreement with a European distributor of Handy Helper when he fielded many Questions about the product from the distributor. Sanjay needed to look more closely at the product in order to be able to answer the Questions as he was not involved in the product development process.

In speaking with the product team, he learned that the Handy Helper collected and stored all of a user's sensitive medical information for the medical appointment scheduler. In fact, all of the user's information is stored by Handy Helper for the additional purpose of creating additional products and to analyze usage of the

product. This data is all stored in the cloud and is encrypted both during transmission and at rest.

Consistent with the CEO's philosophy that great new product ideas can come from anyone, all Omnipresent Omnimedia employees have access to user data under a program called Eureka. Omnipresent Omnimedia is hoping that at some point in the future, the data will reveal insights that could be used to create a fully automated application that runs on artificial intelligence, but as of yet, Eureka is not well-defined and is considered a long-term goal.

What can Sanjay do to minimize the risks of offering the product in Europe?

What is the main purpose in notifying data subjects of a data breach?

SCENARIO

Please use the following to answer the next question:

Liam is the newly appointed information technology (IT) compliance manager at Mesa, a USbased outdoor clothing brand with a global E-commerce presence. During his second week, he is contacted by the company’s IT audit manager, who informs him that the auditing team will be conducting a review of Mesa’s privacy compliance risk in a month.

A bit nervous about the audit, Liam asks his boss what his predecessor had completed related to privacy compliance before leaving the company. Liam is told that a consent management tool had been added to the website and they commissioned a privacy risk evaluation from a small consulting firm last year that determined that their risk exposure was relatively low given their current control environment. After reading the consultant’s report, Liam realized that the scope of the assessment was limited to breach notification laws in the US and the Payment Card Industry’s Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).

Not wanting to let down his new team, Liam kept his concerns about the report to himself and figured he could try to put some additional controls into place before the audit. Having some privacy compliance experience in his last role, Liam thought he might start by having discussions with the E-commerce and marketing teams.

The E-commerce Director informed him that they were still using the cookie consent tool forcibly placed on the home screen by the CIO, but could not understand the point since their office was not located in California or Europe. The marketing director touted his department’s success with purchasing email lists and taking a shotgun approach to direct marketing. Both directors highlighted their tracking tools on the website to enhance customer experience while learning more about where else the customer had shopped. The more people Liam met with, the more it became apparent that privacy awareness and the general control environment at Mesa needed help.

With three weeks before the audit, Liam updated Mesa's Privacy Notice himself, which was taken and revised from a competitor’s website. He also wrote policies and procedures outlining the roles and responsibilities for privacy within Mesa and distributed the document to all departments he knew of with access to personal information.

During this time. Liam also filled the backlog of data subject requests for deletion that had been sent to him by the customer service manager. Liam worked with application owners to remove these individual's information and order history from the customer relationship management (CRM) tool, the enterprise resource planning (ERP). the data warehouse and the email server.

At the audit kick-off meeting. Liam explained to his boss and her team that there may still be some room for improvement, but he thought the risk had been mitigated to an appropriate level based on the work he had done thus far.

After the audit had been completed, the audit manager and Liam met to discuss her team’s findings, and much to his dismay. Liam was told that none of the work he had completed prior to the audit followed best practices for governance and risk mitigation. In fact, his actions only opened the company up to additional risk and scrutiny. Based on these findings. Liam worked with external counsel and an established privacy consultant to develop a remediation plan.

What key error related to program governance did Liam make prior to the audit kick-off meeting?
