Practice question
A customer presents substantial proof that a controller's personal record about her is false and used for an unauthorized purpose. No lawful retention ground, competing legal duty, or statutory exception applies. The controller refuses even to consider blocking or removal because it owns the filing system. Which statement best reflects Section 16(e)?
- Ownership of the system does not defeat the subject's qualified right to blocking, removal or destruction on the established statutory grounds
- System ownership extinguishes every data-subject right
- The controller may keep and use false data indefinitely for any purpose
- The subject must prove that every record in the system is false
- The right is available only for data about corporate officers
