Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM) — Question 15

Which of the following is NOT an important factor to consider when developing a data retention policy?

Answer options

• A. Technology resource.
• B. Business requirement.
• C. Organizational culture.
• D. Compliance requirement

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as organizational culture, while relevant, is not a primary factor in establishing a data retention policy. The other options—technology resource, business requirement, and compliance requirement—are critical as they directly impact how data is managed, stored, and retained according to legal and operational needs.
