Consent and Information Sharing Work Group (CISWG)

(2) PURPOSE: Please provide a clear statement of purpose and justification why the proposed WG is necessary.


The amount and frequency of sharing of information about, by, and from individuals is outpacing our has outpaced the ability to manage it.  Our contention is that when individuals are forced to "consent" to confusing organization-centric  The system of privacy policies and terms of use , the flow of quality information is limited. If such constraints were removed, and capabilities built on the side of the individual, then new, rich information will flow - including actual demand data (as opposed to derived/ predicted demand)are not sufficient for personal data control.  In this context, this work group is chartered to develop open specifications that support an infrastructure for personal data control.


The individual is the optimal point of integration and origination for more and more information services. This architectural shift/ reversal to the pre-computing age norm changes the burden on companies when managing data correlation and protection, reducing the scope of toxic data while increasing the need to be responsive to individual requirements regarding the use of that data.The goal of this working group is to identify and document the use cases and scenarios that illustrate the various sub-sets of individual-driven information sharing, the benefits therein, and specify the policy and technology enablers that should be put in place to enable this information to flow. Our role control for managing personal information services.  The role of this WG is to shepherd new specifications by by which personal information can be enabled to flow under the control of the individual, improving the relationship between demand and supply with personal data control.

 

(3) SCOPE: Explain the scope and definition of the planned work.

The founding Work Group participants recognize that developers are working in an ever-evolving heterogeneous environment that requires interoperability of identity services (i.e. identity- and SOA-enabled applications), and integration of policy assets both internal and external to the enterprise. In order to advance the identity-enabled marketplace - specifically application domains that rely upon information sharing - , privacy, consent and trust this Work Group is chartered to:

  • Become and/or initiate an active public discussion forum for the collection, development, and analysis of use cases, scenarios, and specifications that improve

    individual

    consent-driven

    information

     information sharing.

  • Foster awareness of and participation in

    this effort

    open consent and sharing infrastructure from the broadest stakeholder cross-section possible, both the near-term use case phase

    taking

    which has taken place in this working group, the mid-term specification and practical framework build phase (where we are now), and the long-term adoption of the

    newly emerged individual-driven information sharing.Advocate

    specifications by SSO (Standards Setting Organisations).

  • Develop guidance and supporting materials  in order to advocate the adoption of specific standard practices, policies, and terms to increase the quality of

    privacy practices and improve compliance across all jurisdictions

    consent practices. Ensuring these practices  improve compliance and trust across legal jurisdictions for information sharing.


(4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: List Working Titles of draft Technical Specifications to be produced (if any), projected completion dates, and the Standards Setting Organization(s) to which they will be submitted upon approval by the Membership.

  • The Standard Information Sharing Label – a clear, simple presentation of the essential details about what happens with information shared online: what data, who gets it, for what purpose, etc. AKA The Standard Label. Projected specification completion: 2013-12-31. Submission Target: 2013-06-31 Projected SSO: ISO.
  • Open Notice – An interoperable mechanism for specifying the applicable notices, disclosures, terms, and policies for a given context, e.g., a website. Target Project completion date: 2014-12-31. Project SSO: World Wide Web Consortium

    MVCR Consent Receipt: Core consent record profile for creating consent transaction receipts and records that comply with privacy regulation across jurisdictions: Projected SSO ISO - May 1st, 2016 -  v.8   v.1 by end of 2016

  • User Submitted Terms: Common terms that can be asserted by the individual in parallel or contrast to terms of service that manage information sharing in trusted ways. Projected SSO W3C by end of 2017

  • Information Sharing Agreements: Building on earlier work in CISWG, standardised mechanisms (contracts) that individuals can use to enter into agreements with organisations that enable two way flows of volunteered information. SSO and target dates to be determined.


It is the intention of the Information Sharing WG to ultimately submit the specifications listed above to an appropriate Standards Settings Organization for full life-cycle maintenance. The receiving organizations will be determined on a per-specification basis.


(5) OTHER DRAFT RECOMMENDATIONS: Other Draft Recommendations and projected completion dates for submission for All Member Ballot. The CISWG is open for supporting and collaborating with organizations that have specification work or standards in this space.
