The correct answer is: D. The Department of Commerce.
Reference: The IAPP textbook, U.S. Private-Sector Privacy, 4th Edition, 2024, Section 2.4 Regulatory Authorities Focused on Privacy Issues in the Private Sector:
"Other federal agencies have regulatory authority over particular sectors. These include the federal banking regulatory agencies (such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Federal Reserve, and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency), the FCC, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through its Office of Civil Rights. The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) does not have regulatory authority for privacy, but often plays a leading role in privacy policy for the executive branch."
Per page 35 of the book, the DOC does not have regulatory authority for privacy. The FTC is separate from that of the DOC. FTC is a independent agency and the DOC is a department within the executive branch.
