(3) Comply with an authenticated consumer rights request, pursuant to § 47-18-3304, if:

(A) The controller is not reasonably capable of associating the request with the personal information or it would be unreasonably burdensome for the controller to associate the request with the personal information;

(B) The controller does not use the personal information to recognize or respond to the specific consumer who is the subject of the personal information, or associate the personal information with other personal information about the same specific consumer; and

(C) The controller does not sell the personal information to a third party or otherwise voluntarily disclose the personal information to a third party other than a processor, except as otherwise permitted in this section.

(c) The consumer rights contained in §§ 47-18-3304 and 47-18-3305 do not apply to pseudonymous data in cases where the controller is able to demonstrate information necessary to identify the consumer is kept separately and is subject to effective technical and organizational controls that prevent the controller from accessing that information.

(d) A controller that discloses pseudonymous data or de-identified data shall exercise reasonable oversight to monitor compliance with contractual commitments to which the pseudonymous data or de-identified data is subject and shall take appropriate steps to address breaches of those contractual commitments.
