CIPP/E Timed Practice Set
A 90-question timed practice set with worked explanations, an answer-sheet grid and a live score counter. Use it as independent practice, not as a prediction of your result.
Try a sample question
A 1972 government department builds a large mainframe data bank and shares records with a department in another EEC country. Which concern best reflects the rationale described in the chapter?
- That the mainframe would be too slow to be useful
- That tort law would automatically prohibit the transfer
- That the cross-border transfer would adversely affect individuals' privacy
- That the EEC forbade all data sharing
Show answer and explanation
That the cross-border transfer would adversely affect individuals' privacy
The chapter stresses that fears were exacerbated when personal information was transferred across international boundaries. The worry was an adverse impact on privacy, not the speed of the machine, and the EEC actually encouraged sharing.
