Answer

  • D Only collect name and email as required fields, others at most voluntarily, in line with data minimization

The GDPR only allows data that is necessary for the purpose. For an email reply, name and email are enough. Encryption is sensible but does not make superfluous data permissible. In addition, deletion periods are needed for the form entries.
