Privacy administration in distributed service infrastructure

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a framework to administrate privacy policies in distributed service infrastructure. We define new administrative capabilities that model user preferences and specify how data owners can access to them. We investigate a distributed administration of the privacy policy where three different administrative policies can coexist and one can dominate the other. We define the data collector practices, the legal organisation policies, such as emergency service's policies, and the negotiated policy between the data collector and services providers. We finally specify how to manage these three distributed privacy administration policies.© Institute for Computer Sciences, Social-Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering 2010.
