The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) will be holding an open meeting on July 12 as part of a “Multistakeholder Process to Develop Consumer Data Privacy Code of Conduct Concerning Mobile Application Transparency.”
According to the Federal Register notice attached below,
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’’). The Privacy Blueprint 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. On June 15, 2012, NTIA announced that the goal of the first multistakeholder process is to develop a code of conduct to provide transparency in how companies providing applications and interactive services for mobile devices handle personal data.
Matters to Be Considered:
The July 12, 2012, meeting will be the first in a series of NTIA convened multistakeholder discussions concerning mobile application transparency. Stakeholders will engage in an open, transparent, consensus-driven process to develop a code of conduct regarding mobile application transparency. The objectives of the July 12, 2012, meeting are to: 1) promote discussion among stakeholders concerning mobile app transparency by employing a structured, open process; and 2) provide a venue for stakeholders to agree on the schedule and format of future meetings.
