Selected Answer: B
The correct answer is: B. Adding a notice to the company website’s terms of use disclosing the use of web scraping. I could not find a clear answer to the question in the IAPP textbook. Therefore, I went with the approach of eliminating the incorrect answer choices. For example, following the terms of use posted on professional networking websites that are scraped, limiting the amount of the personally identifiable information they collect, and deidentifying the scraped data before selling it to any third parties are actions that will help the company limit its potential legal liability. However, merely adding a notice to the company website’s terms of use disclosing the use of web scraping does not address the legal or ethical concerns related to the act of web scraping itself, making choice "B" the best answer to the question asked.
