DSCI DCPLA Question Answer
What is a Data Subject? (Choose all that apply.)
An individual who provides his/her data/information for availing any service
An individual who processes the data/information of individuals for providing necessary services
An individual whose data/information is processed
A company providing PI of its employees for processing
An individual who collects data from illegitimate sources
According to the DSCI Privacy Framework and aligned international frameworks such as GDPR and APEC, a “Data Subject” refers to:
"An identified or identifiable natural person to whom the personal data relates."
This includes individuals whose data is being collected, held, or processed by any entity. Thus:
A (an individual providing their data to avail a service) is a data subject because the data is about them.
C (an individual whose data/information is processed) directly matches the definition.
Options B, D, and E refer to entities or persons involved in processing or handling the data, not the individuals to whom the data belongs.
