PECB Exam GDPR Topic 1 Question 3 Discussion

Actual exam question for PECB's GDPR exam
Question #: 3
Topic #: 1
[All GDPR Questions]

When pseudonymization is used in a dataset, the data is divided into restricted access data and non-identifiable dat

a. This restricted access data includes gender, occupation, and age, whereas the non-identifiable data includes only nationality. Is this correct?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Pseudonymization does not remove data identifiability but rather reduces the direct link to an individual (GDPR Article 4(5)). Non-identifiable data includes attributes like gender and occupation, whereas restricted access data includes directly identifying details such as names. Anonymization, not pseudonymization, ensures complete irreversibility.

I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure that a dataset divided into restricted access and non-identifiable data would include a lot more than just gender, occupation, and nationality. Sounds like someone didn't read the question carefully.

I agree with Alecia, A) makes more sense based on the definition of pseudonymization

But pseudonymization is about replacing identifying information with a pseudonym, so I still think A) is correct

Are you kidding me? Non-identifiable data includes nationality? What a joke! Everyone knows that's the first thing people look for to identify someone.
