Greater Control and Transparency in Personal Data Processing
Giray Havur, Miel Vander Sande, Sabrina Kirrane · 2020
Although the European General Data Protection Regulation affords data subjects more control over how their personal data is stored and processed, there is a need for technical solutions to support these legal rights. In this position paper we assess the level of control, transparency and compliance offered by three different approaches (i.e., defacto standard, SPECIAL, Solid). We propose a layered decentralised architecture based on combining SPECIAL and Solid. Finally, we introduce our usage control framework, which we use to compare and contrast the level of control and compliance offered by the four different approaches.
