PRIVACY-5. DATA AGGREGATION RISK

Entities MUST assess the privacy risk of aggregating personal information, in systems and processes where it is collected, generated, used, transmitted, or stored, and wherever feasible, MUST design and operate their systems and processes to minimize that risk. Entities MUST assess and limit linkages of personal information across multiple transactions without the USER's explicit consent.

SUPPLEMENTAL GUIDANCE

Regarding "personal information", see Appendix A, and PRIVACY-1 (DATA MINIMIZATION).

Collection of personal information from repeated data transactions, which can be associated to form a larger body of knowledge about individuals, may increase their privacy risk. For example: An Identity Provider’s ability to facilitate transactions between a user and multiple relying parties may give the Identity Provider privileged insights into the users’ behavior. Such information is the result of the Identity Provider’s ability to link user interactions across transactions.

“Users’ explicit consent” alone should not be used to mitigate privacy risks created by technical architecture or design, such as to mitigate risks that individuals could not be reasonably expected to be able to assess.

See also Requirements PRIVACY-1 (DATA MINIMIZATION) and PRIVACY-2 (PURPOSE LIMITATION) on the application of limitations to, and scope of, individual transactions and data exchanges.

Supplemental Information

Collection of personal information from repeated data transactions, which can be associated to form a larger body of knowledge about individuals, increases their privacy risk if the aggregated data exceeds the amount and nature needed for the original purposes of collection.
