SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next question: Anna and Frank both work at Granchester University. Anna is a lawyer responsible for data protection, while Frank is a lecturer in the engineering department. The University maintains a number of types of records: Student records, including names, student numbers, home addresses, pre-university information, university attendance and performance records, details of special educational needs and financial information. Staff records, including autobiographical materials (such as curricula, professional contact files, student evaluations and other relevant teaching files). Alumni records, including birthplaces, years of birth, dates of matriculation and conferrals of degrees. These records are available to former students after registering through Granchester's Alumni portal. Department for Education records, showing how certain demographic groups (such as first-generation students) could be expected, on average, to progress. These records do not contain names or identification numbers. Under their security policy, the University encrypts all of its personal data records in transit and at rest. In order to improve his teaching, Frank wants to investigate how his engineering students perform in relational to Department for Education expectations. He has attended one of Anna's data protection training courses and knows that he should use no more personal data than necessary to accomplish his goal. He creates a program that will only export some student data: previous schools attended, grades originally obtained, grades currently obtained and first time university attended. He wants to keep the records at the individual student level. Mindful of Anna's training, Frank runs the student numbers through an algorithm to transform them into different reference numbers. He uses the same algorithm on each occasion so that he can update each record over time. One of Anna's tasks is to complete the record of processing activities, as required by the GDPR. After receiving her email reminder, as required by the GDPR. After receiving her email reminder, Frank informs Anna about his performance database. Ann explains to Frank that, as well as minimizing personal data, the University has to check that this new use of existing data is permissible. She also suspects that, under the GDPR, a risk analysis may have to be carried out before the data processing can take place. Anna arranges to discuss this further with Frank after she has done some additional research. Frank wants to be able to work on his analysis in his spare time, so he transfers it to his home laptop (which is not encrypted). Unfortunately, when Frank takes the laptop into the University he loses it on the train. Frank has to see Anna that day to discuss compatible processing. He knows that he needs to report security incidents, so he decides to tell Anna about his lost laptop at the same time. Anna will find that a risk analysis is NOT necessary in this situation as long as?

SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next question: Jane starts her new role as a Data Protection Officer (DPO) at a Malta-based company that allows anyone to buy and sell cryptocurrencies via its online platform. The company stores and processes the personal data of its customers in a dedicated data center located in Malta (EU). People wishing to trade cryptocurrencies are required to open an online account on the platform. They then must successfully pass a Know Your Customer (KYC) due diligence procedure aimed at preventing money laundering and ensuring compliance with applicable financial regulations. The non-European customers are also required to waive all their GDPR rights by reading a disclaimer written in bold and ticking a checkbox on a separate page in order to get their account approved on the platform. All customers must likewise accept the terms of service of the platform. The terms of service also include a privacy policy section, saying, among other things, that if a customer fails the KYC process, its KYC data will be automatically shared with the national anti-money laundering agency. The KYC procedure requires customers to answer many questions, including whether they have any criminal convictions, whether they use recreational drugs or have problems with alcohol, and whether they have a terminal illness. While providing this data, customers see a conspicuous message saying that this data is meant only to prevent fraud and account takeover, and will be never shared with private third parties. The company regularly conducts external security testing of its online systems by independent cybersecurity companies from the EU. At the final stage of testing, the company provides cybersecurity assessors with access to its central database to review security permissions, roles and policies. Personal data in the database is encrypted; however, cybersecurity assessors usually have access to the decryption keys obtained while running initial security testing. The assessors must strictly follow the guidelines imposed by the company during the entire testing and auditing process. All customer data, including trading activities and all internal communications with technical support, are permanently stored in a secured AWS S3 Glacier cloud data storage, located in Ireland, for backup and compliance purposes. The data is securely transferred to the cloud and then is properly encrypted while at rest by using AWS-native encryption mechanisms. These mechanisms give AWS the necessary technical means to encrypt and decrypt the data when such is required by the company. There is no data processing agreement between AWS and the company. Should Jane modify the required GDPR rights waiver for non-European residents?

SCENARIO

Please use the following to answer the next question:

ABC Hotel Chain and XYZ Travel Agency are U.S.-based multinational companies. They use an internet-based common platform for collecting and sharing their customer data with each other, in order to integrate their marketing efforts. Additionally, they agree on the data to be stored, how reservations will be booked and confirmed, and who has access to the stored data.

Mike, an EU resident, has booked travel itineraries in the past through XYZ Travel Agency to stay at ABC Hotel Chain's locations. XYZ Travel Agency offers a rewards program that allows customers to sign up to accumulate points that can later be redeemed for free travel. Mike has signed the agreement to be a rewards program member.

Answers
D.

ABC Hotel Chain and XYZ Travel Agency are joint controllers.

Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

ABC Hotel Chain and XYZ Travel Agency are joint controllers in this relationship, because they jointly determine the purposes and means of the processing of personal data of their customers.According to Article 26 of the GDPR, joint controllers are two or more controllers who jointly participate in the decision-making process regarding the processing of personal data1. In this scenario, ABC Hotel Chain and XYZ Travel Agency use a common platform for collecting and sharing customer data, and they agree on the data to be stored, how reservations will be booked and confirmed, and who has access to the stored data. Therefore, they have a common influence on the processing of personal data and share a common objective of integrating their marketing efforts. Moreover, they offer a rewards program that allows customers to sign up to accumulate points that can be redeemed for free travel, which implies a joint benefit from the processing of personal data.

The other options are not correct because they do not reflect the actual roles of ABC Hotel Chain and XYZ Travel Agency in this relationship.A controller is a natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data2.A processor is a natural or legal person who processes personal data on behalf of the controller3. In this scenario, neither ABC Hotel Chain nor XYZ Travel Agency act solely or on behalf of the other in processing the personal data of their customers. Rather, they act together in a collaborative manner and share the responsibility and accountability for the processing of personal data.Therefore, they are joint controllers, not independent controllers or controller and processor.Reference:1: Article 26 of the GDPR2: Article 4(7) of the GDPR3: Article 4(8) of the GDPR
