Explanation

Transparency (also called 'openness' in some frameworks like OECD Privacy Principles) requires organizations to be clear and open about their data collection and processing practices. Purpose limitation restricts data use to the originally stated purpose. Data minimization requires collecting only the data necessary for that purpose. Consent requires obtaining permission before processing data, but does not itself require informing individuals about practices - that duty belongs to transparency. Frameworks such as GDPR enforce transparency through privacy notices and policies.
