What Privacy by Design (PbD) element should include a de-identification or deletion plan?

 Privacy by Design (PbD) Principles: PbD emphasizes the proactive inclusion of privacy in the design and operation of IT systems, networks, and business practices.

 Retention: The retention element in PbD involves specifying the duration for which personal data will be retained. This is crucial to ensure that data is not kept longer than necessary.

 De-identification or Deletion: As part of the retention plan, organizations must decide on de-identifying or deleting personal data once it is no longer needed for its original purpose. This practice minimizes privacy risks associated with unnecessary data retention.

 Reference: According to the IAPP's "Privacy by Design: The 7 Foundational Principles," the principle of retention emphasizes that personal data should be retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the specified purposes and that secure deletion or de-identification procedures should be implemented.
