Explanation

The core purpose of a privacy framework-such as the NIST Privacy Framework or OECD Privacy Principles-is to guide organizations in managing personal information responsibly, transparently, and accountably. This includes defining how data is collected, used, shared, and protected in ways that respect individual rights. Option A overpromises by 'guaranteeing' security. Option B focuses narrowly on efficiency. Option C describes cybersecurity objectives, which are related but distinct from privacy's focus on lawful and transparent data use.
