Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

Singapore's PDPA incorporates the principle of allowing individuals to opt-out from direct marketing, which aligns with the OECD guidelines and the Council of European Convention principles. This ensures that individuals have the ability to control the use of their personal data for direct marketing purposes, reflecting a key principle of consent and personal data protection.

A is wrong as this principle is not explicitly mentioned in the OECD guidelines or the Council of European Convention principles. B is wrong as there is no concept of sensitive personal data under the PDPA. D is also wrong as there is no right of deletion under the PDPA. C is correct as under the PDPA, the data subjects have the right to withdrawal of consent from direct marketing. Both the OECD guidelines and the Council of European Convention principles emphasize the importance of individuals having the ability to opt-out from direct marketing.
