If a consumer appears confused, what is an appropriate action for the agent?

• A. Ask whether an Authorized Legal Representative helps with decisions and should be present.
• B. Continue with the presentation and hope for understanding.
• C. End the call immediately.
• D. Delete the consumer's data.

Answer: (A)

When someone seems confused, the priority is to support their ability to understand and decide by involving a person who can assist with decisions. Ask whether there is an Authorized Legal Representative who helps with decisions and should be present. This ensures the consumer’s rights are protected, decisions are made with proper understanding, and consent is valid. Continuing the presentation without confirming understanding, ending the call, or deleting data don’t address the need for appropriate support and can raise privacy or consent concerns.
