A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Privacy Terminology Author(s) : Marit Hansen Hannes Tschofenig Rhys Smith Filename : draft-iab-privacy-terminology-00.txt Pages : 16 Date : 2012-01-10 Privacy is a concept that has been debated and argued throughout the last few millennia by all manner of people. Its most striking feature is that nobody seems able to agree upon a precise definition of what it actually is. In order to discuss privacy in any meaningful way a tightly defined context needs to be elucidated. The specific context of privacy used within this document is that of "personal data", any information relating to a data subject; a data subject is an identified natural person or a natural person who can be identified, directly or indirectly. This context is highly relevant since a lot of work within the IETF involves defining protocols that can potentially transport (either explicitly or implicitly) personal data. This document aims to establish a basic lexicon around privacy so that IETF contributors who wish to discuss privacy considerations within their work can do so using terminology consistent across the area.
