Notice & Consent for people relies on clear communication.Decentralized identity relies on legal semantics to express technical semantics that instruct the scope of technical semantics. Legal semantics for data control (that people can see and expect in person) are mirrored to provide data governance that people expect . Data with the use of identifiers and claims online. Identity and traditionally data governance referring explicitly to control the transborder use of personal information and personal identifiers.As there are no standardized legal semantics for Digital identity and personal Transborder data management presents a challenge. This work aims to develop a Unified Notice Control Language, that utilizes the OCA and the W3C Data Control Vocabulary ( mapped legal ontology) to harmonize decentralized legal semantics, utilizing the International Kantara Notice & Consent Receipt specifications (now in WD2 ISO 27560) and ISO 27984. Online Privacy Notice and Consent standard. flow of data in between domains and borders. Specification work Proposed for to extend international Decentralized Semantic Governance for the DDE.

Overview
Decentralized Data Governance for Data subject’s (data) rights. For people to find technology trustworthy, and to be able to use digital identity to control perosonal data in a way we trust, people need transparency over the security and privacy of the use of their identity and personal data after it is provided. They need to be able to see the privacy and security risks. In fact as a parent, this is legally required, in order to consent for them collection, use and surveillance of children's data and identifiers.
The lack of standardized legal semantics for Digital identity and personal (Transborder) data management presents a challenge for identity management technologies and protocols. This task force mission is to extend international identity governance standards to the SSI space with this specification for a privacy controller credential and the Unified Notice Control Language.
Decentralized Semantic Governance Stack
The Identity and Data Governance Stack of Specifications used to create this specification are designed to utilize OCA to overlay legal notice and consent schema's on to the existing ISO/IEC 29100 framework for jurisdictional privacy/surveillance notice profiles.
Then to enable identity governance interoperability by translating a local governance schema to the internationalized schema base for governance controls and privacy rights. Then, to overly the next schema for localized identity and data governance controls, which utilized the same surveillance and privacy semantic governance framework for identity and data control interoperability.
In this process the OCA utilizes this stack of standards and specifications to syncratically harmonize purpose driven interoperability for meta-data and identity governance (by extending International standards)
The Stack
- The use of international standards framework for security, privacy and identity management is critical for interoperability of data and identity controls internationally.
- management of data decentralized identifiers, VC's and the ISO 27710 series,Security Techniques - Information Security Management Systems -
- ISO/ IEC 29100 Security Techniques - Privacy Framework (for identifier governance)
- ISO/IEC 29184 Online Privacy Notice & Consent
- ISO/IEC 27560 Consent Record Structure (Kantara Notice & Consent Receipt specifications)
- Decentralized Proof of Notice for orgs
- Decentralized Proof of Processing (aka consent) for people
- W3C Data Control Vocabulary ( maps legal semantics to ontology) to harmonize decentralized legal semantics with machine readable semantics for linking identifiers and personal data.
- Privacy By Design an Default
- Used for high assurance, harmonized semantics
Background
- A key challenge, which is addressed with an International standards, is the lack of semantic harmonization for personal data control which provides security for the portability and control of private information and is a required for people to be able to independently consent and control personal information. This challenge, which was originally championed by the Open Notice Initiative's Presentation and Paper @ the W3C DoNotTrack Conference in Berkeley California. 'Opening Up the Online Infrastructure' called for collaboration on the semantic standards to be developed. Ultimately realizing that intention data governance standards were needed, and international data governance policy was required to govern between jurisdictions, technical domains, and identity management systems. It was also abundantly clear, the only legal, and human centric framework for this Internationally, is Notice & Consent. Notice and Consent, after an exhaustive research campaign, Notice, and semantics are the only consistent legal, technical and socially required component, for all contexts dealing with personal information.
- This turned into a Kantara Specification effort in 2014 and now, last year, ISO voted to fast track this to a standard 27560, to be used with ISO 29184 to address what was know by the phrased of the Biggest Lie on the Internet, was a focus of a movie Terms and Condition's May Apply. With an international governance rule set, people can use independently of Terms and Conditions.
- With the success of this work as an international standard this Task Force aims to collaborate to support an International data governance authority framework as an open resource for master data control transparency over personal information (with standardized notice).

- Privacy Controller Credential Specification
- Overview: a Privacy Controller Credential is comprised of a bound relationship identifiers for accountability and transparency: This enables data supply chain transparency
- Accountable Person + Legal Entity Identifier
- Legal Status of Accountable person and Legal Entity
- Wether the Accountable person is employed by Legal Entity, or 3rd Party
- if 3rd Party - Privacy Controller Credential of 3rd party is required
- Conditions of access and use:
- the accountable person info should be masked unless required (not published as is required in some jurisdictions)
- Accountable Person + Legal Entity Identifier
- Overview: a Privacy Controller Credential is comprised of a bound relationship identifiers for accountability and transparency: This enables data supply chain transparency
- Use Case(s)
- Digital Immunisation Passport
- Legal Justifications for processing
- Surveillance of identifiers
- Holder, Verifier & Issuer
Unified Notice Control Language for Semantic Harmonization
UNCL:
Uses the definitions and terms specified in the ISO 29100 framework, Consent Receipt v1.2, for specifying key roles for data control, transparency and accountability. This international framework is the basis for extending semantic data governance to decentralized data economy. In this economy, the Privacy Controller Credential extended the Privacy Controller Public Profile for verified claims, decentralized identifiers, and Self Soverign applications. For this purpose, this specification is used to provide the best practices for the data controller to generate a verifiable credential, the considerations in using this as a legal credential for standardized data processing.
