This is the information known only to the individual, and which under current conditions cannot/ will not be released - because in releasing it the individual has to sign up to someone else's terms and conditions. The easiest way to think about this new class of data is that it involves the organisation in signing the terms and conditions of the individual. This work is being taken forward via a Liberty Alliance special interest group (http://wiki.projectliberty.org/index.php/VolunteeredPersonalInformationSIG) - BT is a co-sponsor along with Mydex CIC.
