Hi Shane, I understand your concerns that this may only apply to a few self hosted websites or privacy aware companies. Is there an option to losen the requirements in a way that does not exclude 3rd party hosted sites? - Ninja Am 13.02.2012 17:44, schrieb Shane Wiley: > Ninja, > > I agree with the sentiment (and that this should continue to be a response option) but want to call out that most small publishers do not have the ability to manage data collection at this level as they typically purchase hosting services from a 3rd party provider (often from their domain mgmt vendor). It will take time for 3rd party providers to update their environments (if they even feel compelled) to allow for a strict "no collection" position so we shouldn't expect that this option will be used very often outside of highly technical, privacy sensitive, small web site publishers. > > - Shane > > -----Original Message----- > From: Ninja Marnau [mailto:nmarnau@datenschutzzentrum.de] > Sent: Monday, February 13, 2012 9:10 AM > To:<public-tracking@w3.org> (public-tracking@w3.org); Tom Lowenthal > Subject: ACTION-110: Write proposal text for what it means to "not track" (ISSUE-119) > > Here is my proposal for a definition of "absolutely not tracking": > > A party may claim that it is not tracking, if it > 1) only collects identifying data which is strictly necessary to answer > the user's HTTP request and to fulfil it's contractual obligation > towards the user > 2) does not send, collect or check for unique identifiers > 3) does not correlate the data of a DNT HTTP request with any other data > 4) deletes the identifying data as soon as the original purpose is fulfilled > > > Motivation: > This should be a starting point fo discussing a possible response header > (This site does not track at all) fo very small websites that do no > profiling or customisation at all.
