The Public Services Sector Concepts (SECTOR-PUBLICSERVICES) extension provides a taxonomy extending the [[[DPV]]] and other extension concepts . The namespace for terms in sector extension is https://w3id.org/dpv/sector/publicservices, the suggested prefix is sector-publicservices, and the vocabulary and its documentation is available on GitHub.

DPV v2.1-RC feedback/review period until FEB-16 The DPVCG welcomes feedback and review on the v2.1 Release Candidate containing DPV and related specifications until FEB-16, after which, these documents will be published unless unresolved major issues have been identified. Feedback/review can be e.g., suggestions for improvements, fixing grammar/typos, additional information and references, and technical changes to files. The DPVCG shall discuss all submitted feedback and will resolve in through the weekly meetings. See the changelog for changes.

DPV Specifications: The [[DPV]] is the core specification within the DPV family, with the following extensions: Personal Data [[PD]], Locations [[LOC]], Risk Management [[RISK]], Technology [[TECH]] and [[AI]], [[JUSTIFICATIONS]], [[SECTOR]] specific extensions, and [[LEGAL]] extensions modelling specific jurisdictions and regulations. A [[PRIMER]] introduces the concepts and modelling of DPV specifications, and [[GUIDES]] describe application of DPV for specific applications and use-cases. The Search Index page provides a searchable hierarchy of all concepts. The Data Privacy Vocabularies and Controls Community Group (DPVCG) develops and manages these specifications through GitHub. For meetings, see the DPVCG calendar.

To cite and understand the structure of DPV, the article "Data Privacy Vocabulary (DPV) - Version 2.0" (2024) describes the current state of DPV and extensions from version 2.0 onwards (open access version here). The earlier article "Creating A Vocabulary for Data Privacy" (2019) describes how the DPV was developed (open access versions here, here, and here).

Contributing: The DPVCG welcomes participation to improve the DPV and associated resources, including expansion or refinement of concepts, requesting information and applications, and addressing open issues. See contributing guide for further information.

Introduction

The Data Privacy Vocabulary (DPV) and its extensions provide concepts intended for general use-cases which have a wide applicability. The SECTOR extensions provide concepts specific to a sector to support the use of DPV within that sector. At the moment, these extensions only provide Purposes which extend the DPV's Purpose taxonomy. The DPVCG plans to provide additional sector specific concepts in the future - such as Data categories, Technical and Organisational Measures, Risks and Impacts, and Technologies - and welcomes contributions and participation for these.

Purposes

The Purpose taxonomy provides concepts for representing purposes for processing data or using technologies within the context of the specific sector. Where relevant, these concepts extend the purpose concepts defined in the (main or core) DPV specification. The relation dpv:hasPurpose is useful to associate the purpose with a specific context or concept.
