Abstract
Consent is a key measure for privacy protection. Consent has to be ‘meaningful’ to give people informational power. Individuals need to be provided with real choices and be empowered to negotiate for meaningful consent. Meaningful consent is becoming increasingly important in IoT as privacy is one of the main factors affecting adoption of IoT. Meaningful consent is becoming increasingly challenging in IoT. It is proposed that “apparency, pragmatic/semantic transparency model” adopted for data management could make consent more meaningful, i.e., visible, controllable and understandable [1]. With meaningful consent embedded in the system, users would trust and have a feeling of control that can enhance information sharing which can further support service provision and exploitation of data. The ‘apparency, pragmatic/semantic transparency’ model has illustrated the why and what issues regarding data management for potential meaningful consent [1]. In this paper, we focus on the ‘how’ issue, i.e. how to implement the ‘apparency, pragmatic/semantic transparency’ model’ for meaningful consent in IoT [1]. We discuss the three elements such as apparency (by focusing on the interactions and data actions in the IoT system), pragmatic transparency (by centring on the privacy risks, threats of data actions) and semantic transparency (by focusing on the terms and language used by individuals and the experts). This paper contributes to the research on meaningful consent in IoT. We believe that our discussion would elicit more research on ‘apparency, pragmatic/semantic transparency’ model’ in IoT for meaningful consent.
