Show Answer
Correct Answer: CD

The use of cookies on a website by a service provider is generally not deemed a ‘sale’ of personal information by CCPA as long as the information collected by the service provider is necessary to perform debugging and the business and service provider have entered into an appropriate agreement. This ensures that the collected data is used for the business’s operational purposes and not considered a sale.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the use of cookies on a website by a service provider generally is not deemed a 'sale' of personal information if the service provider is operating under a contract with the business, and the information collected is used for the business's operational purposes specified in that contract, such as providing the services requested by the business, including for example, analytics or debugging. The key is that the service provider must not use the collected information for its own purposes beyond what is necessary to perform the services specified in the contract.

D is incorrect as "debugging" purposes is not required. C is likely the best answer; albeit, it is poorly/confusingly worded. It seems "agreement with subcontractors" is intended to refer to the agreement with the service provider...
