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?

SCENARIO

Please use the following to answer the next question:

Chuck, a compliance auditor for a consulting firm focusing on healthcare clients, was required to travel to the client’s office to perform an onsite review of the client’s operations. He rented a car from Finley Motors upon arrival at the airport as so he could commute to and from the client’s office. The car rental agreement was electronically signed by Chuck and included his name, address, driver’s license, make/model of the car, billing rate, and additional details describing the rental transaction. On the second night, Chuck was caught by a red light camera not stopping at an intersection on his way to dinner. Chuck returned the car back to the car rental agency at the end week without mentioning the infraction and Finley Motors emailed a copy of the final receipt to the address on file.

Local law enforcement later reviewed the red light camera footage. As Finley Motors is the registered owner of the car, a notice was sent to them indicating the infraction and fine incurred. This notice included the license plate number, occurrence date and time, a photograph of the driver, and a web portal link to a video clip of the violation for further review. Finley Motors, however, was not responsible for the violation as they were not driving the car at the time and transferred the incident to AMP Payment Resources for further review. AMP Payment Resources identified Chuck as the driver based on the rental agreement he signed when picking up the car and then contacted Chuck directly through a written letter regarding the infraction to collect the fine.

After reviewing the incident through the AMP Payment Resources’ web portal, Chuck paid the fine using his personal credit card. Two weeks later, Finley Motors sent Chuck an email promotion offering 10% off a future rental.

What should Finley Motors have done to incorporate the transparency principle of Privacy by Design (PbD)?

SCENARIO

Please use the following to answer the next questions:

Your company is launching a new track and trace health app during the outbreak of a virus pandemic in the US. The developers claim the app is based on privacy by design because personal data collected was considered to ensure only necessary data is captured, users are presented with a privacy notice, and they are asked to give consent before data is shared. Users can update their consent after logging into an account, through a dedicated privacy and consent hub. This is accessible through the 'Settings' icon from any app page, then clicking 'My Preferences', and selecting 'Information Sharing and Consent' where the following choices are displayed:

• "I consent to receive notifications and infection alerts";

• "I consent to receive information on additional features or services, and new products";

• "I consent to sharing only my risk result and location information, for exposure and contact tracing purposes";

• "I consent to share my data for medical research purposes"; and

• "I consent to share my data with healthcare providers affiliated to the company".

For each choice, an ON* or OFF tab is available The default setting is ON for all

Users purchase a virus screening service for USS29 99 for themselves or others using the app The virus screening

service works as follows:

• Step 1 A photo of the user's face is taken.

• Step 2 The user measures their temperature and adds the reading in the app

• Step 3 The user is asked to read sentences so that a voice analysis can detect symptoms

• Step 4 The user is asked to answer questions on known symptoms

• Step 5 The user can input information on family members (name date of birth, citizenship, home address, phone number, email and relationship).)

The results are displayed as one of the following risk status "Low. "Medium" or "High" if the user is deemed at "Medium " or "High" risk an alert may be sent to other users and the user is Invited to seek a medical consultation and diagnostic from a healthcare provider.

A user’s risk status also feeds a world map for contact tracing purposes, where users are able to check if they have been or are in dose proximity of an infected person If a user has come in contact with another individual classified as "medium’ or 'high' risk an instant notification also alerts the user of this. The app collects location trails of every user to monitor locations visited by an infected individual Location is collected using the phone's GPS functionary, whether the app is in use or not however, the exact location of the user is "blurred' for privacy reasons Users can only see on the map circles

Which of the following pieces of information collected is the LEAST likely to be justified tor the purposes of the app?

SCENARIO

Looking back at your first two years as the Director of Personal Information Protection and Compliance for the St. Anne’s Regional Medical Center in Thorn Bay, Ontario, Canada, you see a parade of accomplishments, from developing state-of-the-art simulation based training for employees on privacy protection to establishing an interactive medical records system that is accessible by patients as well as by the medical personnel. Now, however, a question you have put off looms large: how do we manage all the data-not only records produced recently, but those still on-hand from years ago? A data flow diagram generated last year shows multiple servers, databases, and work stations, many of which hold files that have not yet been incorporated into the new records system. While most of this data is encrypted, its persistence may pose security and compliance concerns. The situation is further complicated by several long-term studies being conducted by the medical staff using patient information. Having recently reviewed the major Canadian privacy regulations, you want to make certain that the medical center is observing them.

You recall a recent visit to the Records Storage Section in the basement of the old hospital next to the modern facility, where you noticed paper records sitting in crates labeled by years, medical condition or alphabetically by patient name, while others were in undifferentiated bundles on shelves and on the floor. On the back shelves of the section sat data tapes and old hard drives that were often unlabeled but appeared to be years old. On your way out of the records storage section, you noticed a man leaving whom you did not recognize. He carried a batch of folders under his arm, apparently records he had removed from storage.

You quickly realize that you need a plan of action on the maintenance, secure storage and disposal of data.

Which cryptographic standard would be most appropriate for protecting patient credit card information in the records system at St. Anne’s Regional Medical Center?
