User Data Manifesto 2.0

Defining basic rights for people to control their own data in the internet age

Control

over user data access Data explicitly and willingly uploaded by a user should be under the ultimate control of the user. Users should be able to decide whom to grant direct access to their data and with which permissions and licenses such access should be granted.

Knowledge

of how the data is stored When the data is uploaded to a specific service provider, users should be informed about where that specific service provider stores the data, how long, in which jurisdiction the specific service provider operates, and which laws apply.
