DPV Primer

We have comments from Georg and Piero.

No other comments or observations in the room.

Comments related to description of topics and typos have been resolved.

---

Regarding expression of DPV using SKOS or OWL, there has been a discussion the mailing list.

Currently, the choice is to provide both within the Primer. We await Piero & Luigi's text/material for this.

Primer will be updated along with other documentation after this.

---

For other examples (and expression of use-cases), Harsh can provide SKOS examples.

For OWL examples, we need a volunteer. If willing, email Harsh.

georg: In Signatu, we use DPV. The CTO says that adoption rate will depend on approaches, and will be different for different ones.

georg: Our clients prefer natural language expressions, which we turn into a JSON structure. Nothing more.

Technology

georg: In the previous meeting, we discussed Technology as a concept, and agreed on its necessity and inclusion.
… Proposals related to specific forms of technology, e.g. database or algorithm, are being proposed.

jan: In these, does algorithm refer to, e.g. anonymisation algorithm? If so, how to express this?

harsh: We have anonymisation and pseudo-anonymisation as measures. It would be preferable to express concepts related to those under that e.g. specific types of anonymisation techniques.

harsh: That being said, there is no restriction to also declare those as types of algorithms if doing so is necessary or needed, e.g. in an implementation.

… Conclusion of discussion → For now, we include Technology as a concept, and for the rest, we look towards sources from ENISA ISO NIST / etc. for categories and concepts.
… We have the option to provide these as a separate extension if the concepts we collect and provide are opinionated rather than formal/universal.

Entities and their Categorisation

harsh: Currently in DPV, we have the DataController and similar concepts sitting alongside proposed concepts of NonProfitOrganisation and NonGovernmentalOrganisation.
… Proposal is to have concept LegalRole to provide a separation between concepts such as controller and processors from organisation types.

jan: IndustryConsortium as a broad categorisation of Organisation is okay as specific types of consortium could be extended if needed.
… The source of concepts is the ADMS vocabulary, with additional concepts added to balance expression e.g. Profit and NonProfit.

julian: In GDPR Art.91, there is "church and religious associations or communities" mentioned as an organisation. These should also be provided for completion.
… Discussion on what term to use for this did not conclude with any agreement. For now, we consider ReligiousAssociation as a proposed term awaiting further discussion.
