In 2016’s Guidance, the United Kingdom’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) reaffirmed the importance of using a “layered notice” to provide data subjects with what?
A.
A privacy notice containing brief information whilst offering access to further detail.
B.
A privacy notice explaining the consequences for opting out of the use of cookies on a website.
C.
An explanation of the security measures used when personal data is transferred to a third party.
D.
An efficient means of providing written consent in member states where they are required to do so.
A layered notice is a privacy notice designed to respond to problems with excessively long notices1. A short notice — the top layer — provides a user with the key elements of the privacy notice, such as the identity of the organisation, the purposes of the processing, and the rights of the data subjects2. The full notice — the bottom layer — covers all the intricacies in full, such as the lawful basis, the retention periods, and the recipients of the personal data2. The ICO recommends using a layered approach to deliver privacy information in a concise, transparent, intelligible, and easily accessible way, as required by the UK GDPR3. A layered notice allows data subjects to access the information they need at the appropriate level of detail and helps organisations to comply with the right to be informed23. References: 2
