US to Help Define New International Standard for Consumer Privacy by Design

Defining international standards for privacy is critical for the future of global commerce. To support this cause, many of America’s leading companies and government agencies are collaborating to help define the new international standard for “Consumer Protection: Privacy by Design”.

The standard will be part of ISO Project Committee 317. As one of 12 countries with Participant status in ISO/PC 317, the United States will be represented by its Technical Advisory Group (TAG), administered by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in partnership with the OASIS standards and open source consortium. Members of the U.S. TAG represent America’s leading companies and government agencies committed to privacy rights for consumers.
