The scope of the need for a surveillance commissioner is rapidly growing beyond that of just CCTV. In this regard, we aim to not only promote Camera Surveillance Day, but promote very long standing practices and principles of OpenSurveillance in democratic society to preserve community and the planet.
OpenConsent- OPN Notice Receipt Specification is released as Creative Commons Attribute 4
The COEL works is a tremendous breakthrough for attribute level events for consent and the distributed management of privacy notice, which is what Open Privacy Network is being designed and built with.
The UK is poised to become a global leader in privacy upon Brexit March 29th, 2019. As an independent country the UK will again stand on its own as a personal data transfer market. Already a leader in #opensurveilance the UK will set the international standard for privacy security.
Open Surveillance with Operational PrivacySurveillance technology is one of the fastest growing areas of technology. The use of new technologies to track, surveil and monitor people is having a negative impact on user experience. To address this, a privacy profile that generates an operational privacy icon, can be used with any surveillance technology so people can see, and not be scared, of surveillance technology.
Advertised Event: May 25th (the day after this event) marks the day new data privacy rules become enforceable across the EU. It represents a shift to a new privacy paradigm more equipped for digital information society. This includes new performance requirements, like being able to demonstrate consent for processing personal data, granting free access to personal data “in a structured, commonly used and machine readable format” and transferring it “without hindrance” to other services, as well as providing explanations and “meaningful information” in relation to the logic, significance and consequences of automated decision-making.
Objective: Cross community workshop to connect projects and efforts that are related to each other to build liaisons and collaboration on best practice between efforts and communities (and celebrate GDPR)
Report Aim: to list projects and efforts that are active and overlapping. Provide this report as way for projects to connect over the summer, leading up to MyData’s conference in Helsinki.
The event was broken down into 3 sessions, 1. Standards 2. Data Portability 3. AI -Right to an Explanation
This event also had a sister event “GDPRHackDay” co-hosted with MIT Media Labs. The 3rd Session, featured a presentation from Dr. Thomas Hardjono from MIT in London, with the remaining presentation broadcasted live and recorded for posterity here. For a summary about the Hackday see the HackDay Appendix.
The event started with standards efforts presenting on BSI PIM’s Standard - BS 10012:2017 ,W3C Data Privacy Vocabularies and Controls, Kantara CISWG Consent Receipt V.1.1(approved for release May 25) and interestingly both CISWG and BSI are providing input to ISO 29184, which will drive interoperability in notice and consent internationally (more below).
In the Kantara Initiative community, the Kantara Consent & Information Sharing WG (CISWG) has been engineering consent transparency for the,Identity Management industry. The Work Group, is excited to announce the publication of the Consent Receipt Specification, which is a project led to create a global specification for minimum viable consent element to capture a mutual state of privacy. Expert volunteers have come together to build through consensus a specification to guide industry in capturing the privacy state people have when using identity attributes.
The Consent Receipt V.1 is an output comprised of many engagements acorss standards communities, beginning with a conference called IIW and a community called Identity Commons. These communities have been critical in the incubation of this work which started in 2006. This has resulted in outputs that are helping to shape the global Identity Management community. Influencing privacy regulators and supporting industry champions to what has resulted in the work now called the Consent Receipt.
Consent is a fundamental component of new laws that are coming into force on May 25th, 2018. At the time the V.1 Specification has been approved by the Kantara Community, the General Data Protection Regulation has come into force. Providing an important guide to the identity management industry, providing a vision of how identity management can evolve to include privacy.
The Consent Receipt is now implemented in numerous industries and is aligned with the international ISO 29100 Privacy Risk Framework as an approach to international interoperability of privacy notice and consent.
Kantara Initiative Consent Receipt v.1 specification can be found on the CISWG home page.
