Actual exam question for Exin's PDPF exam
Question #: 73
Topic #: 1
[All PDPF Questions]

To plan the amount of parking space needed, a local government monitors and saves the license plate number of every car that enters and leaves the city center. They have obtained permission to collect data on the number of cars present in the city center. By comparing the license plate time of entry and exit the number of cars present every moment of each day is calculated. Each month a report is created detailing the average number of cars in the city center at specific moments for every day of the week. At every entrance to the city center, a billboard clearly states what data is collected by whom, the purpose of the processing and the fact that the license plate numbers are saved securely for up to two years, because the measurements will be repeated next year. Which of the basic principles for legitimate processing of personal data is violated in this scenario?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Personal data are collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed. Incorrect. The local government is entitled to collect data on the number of cars present.

Personal data are kept in a form permitting identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary. Correct. In the given scenario, there is no need to retain the data of a specific car identifying the owner once it has left the area (Literature: A, Chapter 2; GDPR Article 5)

Personal data are processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data. Incorrect. The scenario does not suggest inappropriate security.

Personal data are processed in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject. Incorrect. The processing is taking place transparently, since it is communicated properly to the data subjects.

B is the correct answer. The scenario mentions that the purpose of the data collection is clearly stated, but it doesn't seem very transparent to the public.

I think option D is also relevant, as the purpose of collecting the data should be clear and not further processed.

I agree with Helga, keeping the data for up to two years seems excessive.

Hah, the government is really going all out on this parking data collection! I wonder if they have a secret agenda to track our every move.

D seems like the best option. The data is being collected for a specific purpose, but it's further processed beyond that purpose.

I think the answer is C. Keeping the data for up to two years seems excessive if the purpose is just to plan parking space.
