OneTrust Certified Privacy Professional Practice Exam

When a respondent submits an Assessment, the process typically involves notifying the Assessment Approver who then begins the risk assessment process. This step is crucial as it ensures that the submitted Assessment is properly reviewed and evaluated in accordance with relevant privacy and compliance protocols. The role of the Assessment Approver is essential for maintaining oversight and ensuring that all submitted assessments are scrutinized for any potential risks associated with data management or privacy issues.

In this context, the notification to the Assessment Approver is vital for initiating subsequent actions, allowing for a thorough analysis of the submitted information. This step serves to uphold the standards of accountability and due diligence within the organization's privacy governance framework. Other options, such as the automatic publishing of the assessment without any review or deletion from the system, do not align with the best practices of data governance that prioritize careful assessment and oversight of privacy-related submissions. Additionally, while sending a confirmation email to the user is a common practice, it is not the primary procedural step that directly follows the submission of the Assessment.
