"The missing link between Human Trust and Digital Trust Assurance"
...
for Human Identity that is Soverign Self (HISS)
Digital surveillance is inherently untrustworthy and transparency over surveillance is missing for people. Surveillance transparency is necessary to achieve human trustworthiness, and control independent of technology. There is no trust for human tech only trust frameworks for enterprises and tech itself. In the work here privacy is understood as Digital trustworthiness - is the missing link for people. To achieve human trust, the control of privacy needs to be human/individual centric, not business, legal and technical centric. It This design rule is for this reason that the global point of interoperability for privacy and human data control is on the requirement for a privacy, surveillance, safety, and security notice.
In all of the jurisdictions, in all the laws, providing a notice to people is required, as this is how people gain contextual knowledge and can participate in consensus. Every privacy law requires that the identity of the privacy controller and the contact point for rights administration be provided.
A privacy controller credential is
- the combination of the legal entity +
- the accountable / contact person into a verifiable credential
- so that it can be used to provide privacy assurances (access to privacy rights information and to be heard)
Legally, this information is required to be as open as possible and is codified in law in many different ways. Standardizing the credential using ISO 29100( open and free ) so that privacy controller credential can be used by people internationally to assert privacy controls and negotiate individual digital rights with service providers and communities.
This specification focuses on a best practice schema for identifying the privacy controller.
What is this
Decentralized Governance and Data Control - through the use of the credential, which can be asserted.

Decentralized Human Data Surveillance Governance aka Notice and Consent
This specification is used to standardized the controller record that is used to verify, validate and notarize rights claims for online environments/services. Utilizing semantically standardized notice records and consent receipts, (also known as a Consent Notice Receipt)(ref ISO 29184), in addition to, Data Privacy Vocabulary specified for generating notice and notifications that are both human and machine readableworking effort specifies a regulatory controller from existing standards that apply and can be mapped to any legal authorization for data processing.
This credential is comprised of the legal entity name and the accountable person as defined by their role in the data organization and documented in the ISO 27560 standard. This record is further specified here for 3 levels of Privacy Assurances for transparency and control of personal data when processing in an ecosystem or supply chain,
...
accountability profile as specified by regulation utilizing ISO/IEC 29100 Privacy & Security Techniques. An open (no-fee, no barrier) and international standard from ISO (the Internationational Organization for Standardization) and the IEC (International ElectroTechnical Commission). The use of this standard for the creation of records and receipts is critical for scaleable and interoperable Decentralized Data Governance interoperability between technical domains and legal jurisdictions.
What is this for:
This specification is for the regulation and governance of surveillance and digital identity technology independently of any digital identifiers or trust frameworks. The objective is for the this specification to work with and enhance digital surveillance assurances already provided by work in ToiP. The credentialling process benchmarks the privacy, security and compliance of digital identity technologies with international standards.
The aim of this task force outputs is to create a specification and by so doing implement ISO/IEC international standards to enable regulatory interoperability with human controls and transparency that scale for any authorized surveillance context. To do this, this effort builds upon standards, incorporating additional technical specifications in order to support ToiP community efforts.
Challenges being addressed with the PCC specification have been raised in the Kantara ANCR WG, W3C DPV CG, ISO/IEC 27560 Technical Committee's, CIO Council, DIACC Special Interest Group, IETF GNAP, and VC's with DiD's. The overarching objective is therefore to provide a specification that supports these community efforts.
- The accountable person may or may not be an employee of the organization.
- Different jurisdictions name/define and reference this role differently
- Some jurisdictions, like the UK have a data controller registry (DCR), where this binding is public and legally required (benefit in this case, challenge where absent) and the name of the accountable person is publicly available in ICO DCR. (using blinding identity taxonomy)
- Some jurisdictions, like the EU require an accountable data controller representative in the jurisdiction where a service is operating, in order to address legal data privacy and security issues that may arise.
- 2 or more Controllers might be accountable for processing of personal data.
- Identify in context of service for any user the controller and accountable person.
- The privacy law in some jurisdictions, can itself break privacy law in other jurisdictions by requiring the accountable person information to be published publicly,
- Specifies how to by axquire a VC (in this case the Privacy Controller Credential) for trust assurance for privacy assurance
- International Notice & Control protocol for Unified Data Control & Portable Gap of an international notice & control protocol and semantics for governance interoperability between domain domains and jurisdictions.
Specification Objective
- Develop an extensible controller credential format
- specifying 3 nested layers of controller identifier claims, to correspond with standard tiers of Privacy Risk Assurance.
- A set of rules for the use: verification, validation and notarization of the controller credential.
The specification providesshall provide:
- a record format that MUST blind the identity of the accountable person,
- be usable as a linked data in a notice of control receipt, which provides only the controller information required for the purpose of credential use.
- record , so as to and provide a profile of the bound controller credentials in a manner that can show the controlling person before, during and after the use of a decentralized digital identifier.
- control providence that begins with the person making the assertion to the accountable role using laws and standards to bind privacy rights request to a legal entity

Decentralized Data Governance
Supporting Decentralized Data Controls with Identity Governance for Data subject’s (data) rights. This task force mission is to enhance identity and data governance interoperability with standardized notice of Control and accountability for processing personal data (with the ToiP layered governance model.)
The key challenge this initial specification is aimed to address is systemic (and broadcasted) transparency over the controller of personal information, so that data controls can be used automatically to enable dynamic data control.
Unlike in physical world, the processors of your personal data are invisible. This is why the identity of the data controller is required in all legal privacy frameworks and is the most common and similar legal component for processing personal data. This makes the notice of control an ideal focus for ToiP governance interoperability.
Online, there can be many processors, personal identifiers can be shared and aggregated without any transparency, personal data may continuously be processed and people are completely unaware and at risk of this surveillance. This is why the promise of SSI is so attractive and why profiling and aggregation using identifiers is specifically called out in privacy legislation as high risk to privacy in which processing is required to be more (proportionally transparent). What's more, even the Controller, might contain multiple legal entities. This challenges identity management technologies for privacy compliance and human trust.
To address a key part of this challenge a specification for listing the Control Provenance, focusing on the legal entities and accountable people in control of processing personal data as the first spec to providing the needed transparency (or Notice) for the control of processing, required for trustworthy processing.
This specification will provide a nested schema to record a privacy controller credential for transparency over the control of processing. This privacy controller credential is intended to use a stack of standards and specifications to provide a standard set of identity control semantics, that can then be used in notice and notification by people to control personal data directly to provide Privacy assurance.
Background of this Semantic Standards Stack
- A key challenge to interoperability is addressed with the International ISO/IEC standards framework 29100 and 29184. This provides a semantic control framework to address 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 first presented the W3C DoNotTrack Conference in Berkeley California. 'Opening Up the Online Infrastructure' .
- 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.
- Now this work is being updated to the ANCR WG Notice Records for Receipts version,.
Decentralized Semantic Governance
is the focus of the first Discussion Paper, which aims to look at the overlaps of digital identity surveillance technology and regulator led (regulatory) data governance. This will present the overall architecture and the contribution of certain standards used in the credential, as well as how digital identity specifications and protocols can be deployed to implement decentralized data governance.

Specifications
- Kantara ANCR WG, AuthC protocol and V2 Notice Record and Consent Receipt Specification (for implementing the AuthC protocol) (parallel work)
- W3C DPV CG Specification for notice record and receipt semantics
baseline The Identity and Data Governance semantic based line is the international ISO/IEC 29100 security and privacy techniques framework, this is mapped to Legal jurisdiction notice schema and the differnces differences and risks (in terms of rights and the performance of data controls) is provided as a component of the notice of control.
The risks are used to provided a progressive framework for people to self-mitigate the risks and themselves drive the development of dynamic digital identity governance interoperability. Translating a local governance schema to the internationalized schema base for governance controls and privacy rights comparison. Then, to overlay the next schema for localized identity and data governance controls, which utilized the same surveillance and privacy semantic governance framework in order to indicate the level of data governance interoperability.
In this process the OCA utilizes this stack of standards and specifications to syncratically harmonize data portability and control with purpose driven interoperability for data and identity governance.
This is accomplished with the standard for specifying a purpose for notice and consent.
The Trustworthy Transparency Specification Stack
Using the Credential
The The use of an international standards framework for providing standarized notice semantics is critical to harmonize or highlight different security, privacy and identity management governance requirements. Standardized semantics, usable for any data governance is also critical for human interoperability/usability across domains which is the key driver of this work and effort at ToiP .
