What does Opt in require in terms of consent?

  1. Require the individual to take action to start processing personal information for secondary uses

  2. Assume consent unless explicitly denied

  3. Prohibit any use of personal information without consent

  4. Use personal information without any consent

The correct answer is: Require the individual to take action to start processing personal information for secondary uses

Opt-in requires the individual to take action to start processing personal information for secondary uses. This means that the organization cannot use the individual's personal information for any secondary purposes unless the individual actively gives consent by opting in. This ensures that individuals have control over how their information is being used and promotes transparency and accountability in data processing practices. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the concept of opt-in consent. Option B, assuming consent unless explicitly denied, is related to an opt-out approach. Option C, prohibiting any use of personal information without consent, is a bit extreme and does not consider scenarios where personal information can be processed without consent for legitimate purposes. Option D, using personal information without any consent, is a violation of privacy regulations and is not an acceptable practice.
