Data controllers are primarily responsible for determining the purposes, conditions, and means of processing personal data. This role includes not just deciding which data to collect but also ensuring compliance with relevant data protection laws and regulations in relation to processing activities. The other options, while related to data management, either fall under the duties of data processors (managing IT systems that process data) or custodians/stewards (maintaining data accuracy and accessibility, implementing policies). The creation of data collection tools is too specific an action and doesn't convey the broader regulatory and decision-making responsibilities of data controllers.
