JLINC Your Data
Personal data is both ‘the most commercially valuable commodity in the history of our species’ (BBC, 2021)’, and yet in parallel ‘The promise of the data economy is being jeopardized by mistrust and new regulation. The time has come for a paradigm shift around information sharing.’ (World Economic Forum).
Personal data is typically gathered by organisations under opaque agreements, with legally dubious ‘consents’; and then held within their siloes as an economic asset that they own. This model reduces trust on The Internet, and less data flows in value creating ways than it could.
As the data is siloed and disconnected from its source, data quality is typically very poor. This limits it’s utility and the returns from its use.
The current model around personal data is akin to ‘The Wild West’. The only beneficiaries of the current model are ‘big tech’.
Personal data sourcing, management and use needs a radically different approach; one in which data provenance, data portability, data interoperability, and equitable data exchange are pre-eminent.
The JLINC protocol enables that much improved approach, addressing all four of those pain points in ways that easily fit into/ improve existing processes.
Addressing these pain points with these solutions can turn around the declining trust on The Internet and turn that into a positive sum game.
UK.Gov holds the view that freeing up data and making it ‘smart’ will add some 1% to gross domestic product.
We automate compliance with global privacy laws, ensuring that every use of gathered data respects personal rights and is in keeping with the latest regulations. JLINC not just protects—but empowers the enforcement of personal data rights, every step of the way.
With the JLINC platform, trust is built into every interaction. Personal users and corporate custodians can now control all their data’s journeys, from collection to every new destination, with full visibility and choice.
