To further develop the initial Consent Receipt work with a specification for an anchor receipt for notice of purpose and context, and for proof of notice, that supports decentralized governance and authorization (Auth C) by individual human beings, regulators, data controllers, and data processor. Collaborate with other Kantara, and community and standards groups in the adoption of the protocol and the anchor receipt.
Contribute the specification so it can be used in an open governance framework.
Contribute the specification and the work in the furtherance of the governance of a Digital Commons.
