DSCI DCPLA Exam Dumps

Privacy policies are living documents that reflect how organizations manage personal information. While regular review cycles (e.g., annually) are recommended, nothing restricts updates outside of that cycle when significant changes in processing activities, legal obligations, or identified risks occur.

Therefore, Statement C is incorrect --- a privacy policy can and should be updated before the scheduled review if warranted.

The classification of data as 'sensitive personal data' is context-sensitive and often varies across different jurisdictions based on legal, cultural, and contextual factors. For instance, while health information is universally recognized as sensitive, categories such as caste, political beliefs, or biometric data may have differing interpretations depending on the local laws and societal norms.

Therefore, statement B is correct as it acknowledges the variability of data sensitivity by geography and culture.

The issue presented refers to a lack of technical ability or insufficient infrastructure to prevent data leakage, which is indicative of a ''Capability Problem.''

In DSCI terminology:

Visibility = Lack of knowledge of data or process

Capability = Inability to perform required action

Enforcement = Lack of governance mechanisms

Demonstration = Lack of evidence of implementation

This situation clearly reflects an inability (capability gap) to restrict external data transfers effectively.

All the mechanisms listed---Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs), Adequacy Decisions, and Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)---are recognized tools for lawful cross-border data transfers under global privacy regulations like the GDPR and are incorporated by reference into Indian privacy practices.

BCRs are internal rules adopted by multinational groups.

Adequacy Decisions are determinations that another jurisdiction provides an adequate level of data protection.

SCCs are pre-approved contract templates for data transfers.

These approaches ensure continued protection of personal data outside of national borders.

According to the DSCI Assessment Framework for Privacy (DAF P), a 'Personal Information Management Policy' is a foundational artefact that reflects the organization's commitment and operationalization of privacy practices. It typically defines how personal information is collected, used, disclosed, retained, and disposed of across the organization.

This artefact not only outlines governance structures and responsibilities but also links to other aspects such as risk management, compliance tracking, and privacy notices. Hence, it is the logical first document for a privacy assessor to request.
