SCENARIO -Please use the following to answer the next question:CreditPlaya, SA is an established Spanish online insurance company whose exclusive activity is providing health insurance for legal residents of Spain, regardless of their nationality.CreditPlaya autonomously manages its own website, through which a potential customer, engaging in a free pre-contractual activity, enters his or her full name, e-mail address, tax identification number (to verify residence in Spain), age, profession, and the full names of any other adult members of his or her family.With this data, CreditPlaya immediately sends an email granting or denying eligibility for a health insurance policy. In the case of eligibility, the email also contains the eventual cost of the policy and two PDF documents – one with the contractual Terms and Conditions, and the other with the privacy notice as required by Article 13 of the GDPR.The CreditPlaya Information Tracking System (ITS) is very efficient, with a low rate of unpaid insurance policies. The ITS is automatically fed by the information provided by every applicant, whose data is then used to refine insurance policy rates.To ensure their back-up procedures, in January 2021 CreditPlaya started sending weekly copies of the whole database with all the applicants' personal data to an independent company in Uruguay. The information was sent through state-of-the-art encrypting tools, but once in Uruguay was stored without any encryption method.In March 2022, the entire data base stored on the Uruguay's company servers was encrypted by malicious ransomware. There was no evidence that the data was accessed by unauthorized persons, much less altered or exfiltrated. Despite the incident, CreditPlaya found that they could rely on the locally based Spanish back-up information and carry on its activity without interrupting its operations. The incident caused the termination of the professional relationship between the two companies.The content of the email that CreditPlaya sends does not comply with GDPR requirements because it lacks what?

SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next question: You have just been hired by a toy manufacturer based in Hong Kong. The company sells a broad range of dolls, action figures and plush toys that can be found internationally in a wide variety of retail stores. Although the manufacturer has no offices outside Hong Kong and in fact does not employ any staff outside Hong Kong, it has entered into a number of local distribution contracts. The toys produced by the company can be found in all popular toy stores throughout Europe, the United States and Asia. A large portion of the company's revenue is due to international sales. The company now wishes to launch a new range of connected toys, ones that can talk and interact with children. The CEO of the company is touting these toys as the next big thing, due to the increased possibilities offered: The figures can answer children's questions on various subjects, such as mathematical calculations or the weather. Each figure is equipped with a microphone and speaker and can connect to any smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth. Any mobile device within a 10-meter radius can connect to the toys via Bluetooth as well. The figures can also be associated with other figures (from the same manufacturer) and interact with each other for an enhanced play experience. When a child asks the toy a question, the request is sent to the cloud for analysis, and the answer is generated on cloud servers and sent back to the figure. The answer is given through the figure's integrated speakers, making it appear as though that the toy is actually responding to the child's question. The packaging of the toy does not provide technical details on how this works, nor does it mention that this feature requires an internet connection. The necessary data processing for this has been outsourced to a data center located in South Africa. However, your company has not yet revised its consumer-facing privacy policy to indicate this. In parallel, the company is planning to introduce a new range of game systems through which consumers can play the characters they acquire in the course of playing the game. The system will come bundled with a portal that includes a Near-Field Communications (NFC) reader. This device will read an RFID tag in the action figure, making the figure come to life onscreen. Each character has its own stock features and abilities, but it is also possible to earn additional ones by accomplishing game goals. The only information stored in the tag relates to the figures' abilities. It is easy to switch characters during the game, and it is possible to bring the figure to locations outside of the home and have the character's abilities remain intact. Why is this company obligated to comply with the GDPR?
