Background: On February 23, 2012, the White House released Consumer Data Privacy in a Networked World: A Framework for Protecting Privacy and Promoting Innovation in the Global Digital Economy (the “Privacy Blueprint”).[1] The Privacy Blueprint establishes a Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights and directs NTIA to convene multistakeholder processes to develop legally enforceable codes of conduct that specify how the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights applies in specific business contexts.[2] On July 12, 2012, NTIA convened the first meeting of the privacy multistakeholder process; the first process focused on developing a code of conduct to provide transparency in how companies providing applications and interactive services for mobile devices handle personal data.[3] On July 25, 2013, the stakeholder group agreed to stop drafting and begin reviewing, testing, and implementing the code of conduct. More information about the stakeholders' work is available at: http://www.ntia.doc.gov/other-publication/2012/privacy-multistakeholder-process-mobile-application-transparency.
Matters To Be Considered: The August 29, 2013 meeting will provide a forum for stakeholders to discuss lessons learned from the first NTIA privacy multistakeholder process. The meeting is not intended to focus on the substance of stakeholder work regarding mobile application transparency. Instead, the meeting will be a venue to discuss what worked well and what can be improved in the NTIA privacy multistakeholder process. NTIA expects that the group will discuss a number of logistical and procedural issues, including but not limited to: how future processes might be structured to reach consensus most efficiently; how future processes might make stakeholder participation easier and more effective; and how future processes might start with one or more sessions that provide factual background on a given topic.
Time and Date: NTIA will convene a meeting of the privacy multistakeholder process on August 29, 2013, from 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time. The meeting time is subject to change.
