Which of the following is MOST important to include in a data use policy?

A data use policy is a document that defines the rules and guidelines for how personal data are

collected, used, stored, shared and deleted by an organization. It is an important part of data

governance and compliance, as it helps to ensure that personal data are handled in a lawful, fair and

transparent manner, respecting the rights and p

of data subjects. A data use policy should

include the requirements for collecting and using personal data, such as the legal basis, the purpose,

the scope, the consent, the data minimization, the accuracy, the security and the accountability.

These requirements help to establish the legitimacy and necessity of data processing activities, and

to prevent unauthorized or excessive use of personal data.
