Option D

BCA

Solution :

The correct option is BCA.

Let's analyze the sentence and find the correct rearrangement of the bold words to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
The original sentence is:
"The company is facing criticism for allegedly sharing user data with (A) platforms (B) unauthorized (C) third-party without explicit consent."

Let's evaluate the grammatical structure and meaning of the sentence:
1. After the preposition "with", we expect a noun phrase representing the entity receiving the shared data.
2. The bold words are:
- (A) platforms (noun)
- (B) unauthorized (adjective)
- (C) third-party (adjective/noun modifier)
3. The adjective unauthorized (B) and the modifier third-party (C) should describe the noun platforms (A).
4. Arranging them in a logical order, adjectives precede the noun they modify: "unauthorized" (adjective) + "third-party" (modifier) + "platforms" (noun).
5. This gives the sequence: unauthorized (B)third-party (C)platforms (A), which is BCA.

Let's read the rearranged sentence:
"The company is facing criticism for allegedly sharing user data with unauthorized third-party platforms without explicit consent."
This sentence is grammatically correct and contextually meaningful.
