Selected Answer: C
C. The supervisory authority of the Republic of Poland. Explanation: According to the GDPR, the lead supervisory authority is determined based on where the "main establishment" of the controller is located, which is the place where the decisions regarding the purposes and means of the processing of personal data take place. For the specific SaaS service, since it was defined and implemented by the Polish establishment, and assuming that the primary decision-making for this service occurs in Poland, the supervisory authority in Poland would be the lead supervisory authority for this particular service. This is because the main establishment relevant to the processing activities of the SaaS service is in Poland.
