CIPM Exam - Question 85


Which term describes a piece of personal data that alone may not identify an individual?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

A single attribute describes a piece of personal data that alone may not identify an individual. For example, a person's birthdate or postal code, when considered alone, is usually not enough to pinpoint a unique individual. However, these single attributes can contribute to identifying someone when combined with other data points.

D. A single attribute describes a piece of personal data that alone may not identify an individual. Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. A single attribute, such as someone's birthdate or postal code, may not be sufficient to identify a specific individual on its own, but it can be combined with other data points to create a more complete picture of the person's identity.
