According to privacy legislation, what can be said about the address and phone number provided by a prospective buyer if these details are related to his company?

This information must always be shared with other potential clients.
This information is not considered personal information.
It needs to be stored in a secure database accessible to authorized personnel only.
This information should be encrypted before storing.
This information is deemed to be personal information.
It can only be kept if consent is given by the prospective buyer.

The correct answer is: This information is not considered personal information.

The correct response is that the address and phone number related to a company's representative are not considered personal information. Under privacy legislation, personal information generally pertains to individuals rather than corporate entities. In this context, contact details associated with a business do not carry the same level of privacy protection as those linked to an individual, as they relate to the operational aspect of the business rather than personal data about a private individual. Other choices revolve around the handling of personal information, consent requirements, or storage security, but the distinction is important in recognizing that corporate details fall outside the scope of personal information under privacy laws. This allows for different handling practices regarding how such business-related information is treated compared to personal data.
