Your data, on your terms
For everyone, and especially for people who care about privacy, and the identity and VRM community.
The moment
You’ve just signed up for a site, and agreed to terms you didn’t read.
Before
What you gave the site, and what you agreed to, sits in its records, not yours.
With Praxamark™
You keep your side of the record: what you gave each site, the terms you agreed to, dated copies of its policies, and receipts you can check. You can offer a site your own privacy terms.
What Praxamark does
- My Digital Exhaust: what you gave each site at sign-up, the terms you agreed, dated copies of policies, and the time each policy would take to read, at 238 words a minute (Brysbaert, 2019); reading every privacy policy you meet would take about 201 hours a year (McDonald & Cranor, 2008) (Praxamark Vault and up)
- Data receipts from organizations, as W3C Verifiable Credentials you check on your computer (Praxamark Vault and up)
- Supports MyTerms (IEEE 7012, beta): share your own privacy terms, from Customer Commons’ agreements, with sites that accept them; you choose to be asked first, share automatically or never share, site by site (Praxamark Vault and up)
- My Wallet: your own details kept at hand, never in a post (Praxamark Vault and up)
- Tracking codes stripped from what you keep
- Email aliases for each site, and the tracker manager (Praxamark Atlas)
Coming soon: see how much each site tracks you, how many trackers it loads and whose they are. MyTerms agreements are written and kept by Customer Commons, not by Identity Praxis, and nothing here is legal advice.
Where it goes
Nowhere. It stays in your Praxamark Data Vault, on your computer, which you can seal (encrypt) with a passphrase.
