----- TEXT:
In this paper authors report on their work to provide a comprehensive 
standard vocabulary for data privacy and legally compliant personal data 
handling. The contribution describes the vocabulary itself along with 
the individual sub-modules for the different aspects of privacy. 
Furthermore, the authors provide information about their development 
approach and the evolution of the vocabulary since its conception. They 
detail a set of vocabularies that were considered for reuse (also 
positioning their work within the context of the state of the art) and 
adopted concepts, although mostly relying the SPECIAL Usage Policy 
Language. Finally, the authors describe the various extension points of 
the vocabulary, show example usage of the concepts and outline potential 
parts for contribution from the community.

The paper is well-written, its structure is logical and it is 
well-formatted. The topic is very relevant to the conference programme 
and Semantic Web community and the work has high potential for very wide 
practical adoption in the coming years, especially with the growing 
adoption of GDPR. The development approach of the vocabulary is logical 
and strictly follows the core principles of the Semantic Web. The 
vocabulary itself is publicly available along with documentation 
detailing the different concepts and terms. In my opinion this is an 
excellent paper and should be presented at ODBASE.

----- TEXT:
This paper describes the main outcome from the work of the W3C’s Data 
Privacy Vocabulary and Controls Community Group, the Data Privacy 
Vocabulary.
The work is well motivated and presents a solid piece of work.
The work is well positioned wrt the related work.
The paper is easy to read and follow.
It describes the data privacy vocabulary and its possible use case 
scenarios.

Section 4 aims at describing the methodology followed towards the 
creation of the vocabulary.
However, the methodology followed should be better described.
The vocabulary (section 5) is well described.

In Section 6 (or in a new section), it would be nice to see a complete 
example which uses the proposed ontology.

Considering the comments above, I recommend acceptance of the paper.
