Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

Explanation

OBJ. 2.2 - The best approach is to apply the strictest data handling standard across all jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with the most restrictive privacy laws. This reduces legal risks and simplifies compliance management. Developing separate policies for each country can be complex and inconsistent. Allowing local offices to define their own handling procedures increases the risk of non-compliance. A policy focused only on headquarters neglects international operations.
