Discussion notes, key understandings, outstanding questions, observations, and, if appropriate to this discussion: action items, next steps: 
 Key Concepts behind ISWG -
 

• My Data, Your Data, Their Data, Everybody's Data
 
• Customer Supplier Engagement Framework
 
• Engagement Model
 
• Trust Framework
   
  • Data Host, Data Recipient, Individual
 
• Master Agreement & Data Transaction Agreements




Key Idea: before sharing information, establish a contract covering the
use of that data



Quadumvirate used to describe key terms for information sharing



• Recipient

• Scope

  • What Data

  • How do they get it

  • When do they get it


* Purpose

• • Specific value creating activity

  • Duration of use

• Response Channel

  • Authorized communications for output of purpose




Eg: Google Search
* Recipient : Google


• Scope

  • What Data : Search Keywords
  • How do they get it : Form data posted to URL
  • When do they get it : When form is submitted

• Purpose
  • Specific value creating activity : Recommend related websites
  • Duration of use                  : once

• Response Channel

  • Authorized communications for output of purpose : web page resulting
from post



Eg: Google Alerts


• Recipient : Google

• Scope
-- What Data : Search Keywords
  • How do they get it : Form data posted to URL
  • When do they get it : When form is submitted


* Purpose

• • Specific value creating activity : Recommend related websites
  • Duration of use                  : ongoing (instant/daily/weekly)


* Response Channel


• • Authorized communications for output of purpose : email




From these, we see two desirable categories of terms.


1. Terms that all sharing scenarios have in common.

2. Terms that distinguish different scenarios.



The Master Agreement covers #1. Data Transaction covers #2.



Master Agreement:


• Termination at will

• No redistribution without permission, except to third parties who have
agreed to this agreement and to not coorelate this data with data from
other contexts.



Data Transaction Elements
   

• value added
   
• freely redistribute (permissions otherwise are part of master
   agreement)
   
• use data: once/session/ongoing
   
• read/write/update data: once/session/ongoing
   
• derivative with editorial approval
   
• consideration
   
• statistical aggregation (statically anonymous)
   
• Power of attorney/agency



First four patterns combining those elements
   

• Pattern 1: Personal RFP: pRFP, value added, read & use for
   lifetime of pRFP, statistical aggregation, communications via
   service broker, statistical aggregation
   
• Pattern 2: Transit Authority: geolocation data, read & use
   indefinitely, no value added, no communications channel, statistical
   aggregation
   
• Pattern 3: Road Warrior Program: geolocation data, read & use
   indefinitely, value added, communications channel: device specific
   (GPS interface)
   
• Pattern 4: Usage optimization:use data, read & use indefinitely,
   value added (advice), communications channel: notification (SMS,
   email), power of attorney



Added during session: need for element specifying data host location.



Work in progress. Participation invited.
