Q: 15
In which circumstance do private sector privacy laws permit collection of information without
consent?

A imo. Private sector laws like PIPEDA allow collection without consent if it's urgent and clearly in the individual's benefit, so 'timely consent cannot be obtained' fits. The other choices don't have the same legal basis, I think.
Its A
Option B
Nah, not D tbh. A fits better since private sector laws like PIPEDA make exceptions only when it’s urgent and in the individual’s clear interest, not just because consent is waived. D’s kind of a trap here since waiver usually still needs a form of consent-A matches those rare emergency scenarios. Disagree?
Its A
A since private sector exemptions for urgent cases line up with PIPEDA from what I've seen.
Honestly these privacy law questions get nitpicky, but A imo. Seen similar on practice tests for CIPP-C.
C isn't correct here, it's really A. Private sector laws like PIPEDA mention exceptions for emergencies or clear individual interest when consent can't be quickly obtained. Pretty sure that's the only scenario allowed without consent.
Why wouldn't D count if the individual actually waives their consent? Is there a specific law that makes A more reliable?
Be respectful. No spam.
