Carlton ----- End forwarded message ----- The proposal tries to find names for different classes of privacy of some data types. The German legislation already uses a similar system: - personal data (direct pointing to a real person) - personable data (asking a third party to get a pointer to a real person) - non-personal data (no possibility to select a real person) Of course the distinction is not always easy: How about statistical evidence?
