Consent Forms for Personal Data

 


 

Dear Shri Ashvini Vaishnawji ,

 

In my earlier email ( Dashboard for Data Owners / 04 Aug 2023 ) , I had

suggested :


To ensure that the Data Fiduciary collects only that data which it requires to

deliver SPECIFIC SERVICE ,


 #  DATA PROTECTION BOARD must Mandate use of only that FORM ( for each

     “ nature “ ) which the BOARD has designed ( data fields )

     

This is not a big deal .


Underneath, I have listed ( though not comprehensive ), data-fields required

 for 10 different DATA FORMS , which Data Protection Board must

STANDARDIZE and mandate the “ Data Fiduciaries “ to display on their portals


But then, there could be thousands of “ Data Fiduciary “ ( websites / portals of

 Social Media – E Commerce – Banks – Fintech – Central / State Govt Agencies –

 Departments – Search Engines – Buy / Sell platforms – Private Companies –

 Service Providers – Hospitals etc )


It is going to be difficult to ensure / monitor that each of these, use the DPB

 mandated forms


Let us not forget, that ALL fiduciaries MAY NOT need ALL types of data about a

 person. Each may use a different  COMBINATION of these 10 forms , to deliver

 some specific service


Also think of the pain of the 1400 million Data Owners


They would be required to fill in their “ SAME “ Personal Data , again and again, (

 although in identical / standard FORMS ) , in thousands of websites !


They are bound to make mistakes !


I understand, DPDP Bill has made provision for CONSENT MANAGERS , whom

 Data Owners may “ authorize “ to “ manage “ their personal data . I think

 hundreds of Consent Managers will crop up soon


I suppose this means :

 

Ø  A Data Owner need NOT fill in those ( 10 or less ) DATA FORMS on

    thousands of portals of Data Fiduciaries, but she need to fill in those FORMS

    , on only ONE portal viz; portal of a CONSENT MANAGER

 

Ø  She will then “ authorize “ that CONSENT MANAGER to “ share “( when

    requested ), her “ specific data “ to each specific “ Data Fiduciary “ (

    hundreds of Permutations / Combinations )

 

Ø  A Data Owner will ( presumably ) require to pay a small FEE to the Consent

   Manager, to manage her data

I suppose, if a Data Owner is NOT satisfied with the service of a given Consent

 Manager, she would have a right to select another Consent Manager.


What happens in such a case ?

 

Would she need to “ re-enter “ her Personal Data ( 10 Forms ? ) all over again on

 the portal of the new Consent Manager ?


OR,


Would Data Protection Board , direct the first Consent Manager to automatically

 TRANSFER user data to the second Consent Manager ?

Now, consider how SIMPLE life will become for all :


#  Data Owners ( Data Principals – 1400 million Indian citizen )

#  Data Fiduciaries ( thousands of websites )

#  Data Protection Board


-      If there was ONLY ONE , Consent Manager !

 

All Indian Citizen to furnish their personal data on only  ONE portal , owned and

 operated by the Data Protection Board ?


Dear Ashwini Vaishnawji ,

 

To vastly simplify the lives of , not only millions of citizen but also of thousands of businesses, please consider my following past e-mails :

PS :

Even if Data Protection Board , launches tomorrow that one CENTRAL portal

where all Indian citizen can submit their COMPREHENSIVE personal profile (

consisting of all 10 Data Forms ), it will take DECADES


But with rapid advances in Artificial Intelligence , it is now possible to

CONSOLIDATE personal data of ALL of our citizen ( lying scattered on thousands

 of sites of Data Fiduciaries ), in a matter of weeks !
