Digital Rights . Data Equity

ABOUT

Article 31 – TheRight to Identity

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was written in 1948 and has 30 Articles. None mention identity, data, the Internet or digital connectivity. If you do not have these things today you do not have equity or equal opportunities.

 

We need a new Article 31.

“Everyone should have property rights to any data they create. Only they can decide what to share with whom, when and how. Everyone must directly benefit from any value their data creates. They have the right to know if any data about them is held by others and how it is used. Everyone has the right to connectivity to enjoy their rights in a borderless digital world.”

Bluenumber Foundation, Inc., a 501c3 non-profit (New York)

We generate all b#IDs (free of charge) and govern their ethical use. We defend the data rights of all b#ID holders. Our mission is to change how people own, manage, and benefit from use of their digital identity and data – promoting that they must create their digital identity, own their data, and choose what to share, when, and with whom. As a ‘data cooperative’ of all B#ID holders, we are a stakeholder in developing global policy and standards by Governments and Companies that are truly fit for the future.

The Bluenumber Foundation For New Human ID

The Bluenumber Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit incorporated in New York State, both governs and manages the B# system neutrally and independently. The Foundation Board is drawn from the b#ID community to steward the B#Ecosystem, set rules for b#ID use, and promote innovation and competition. The Foundation issues b#ID’s and protects the data of person behind the b#ID. 

The mission of the B#Foundation is to change how people and organisations own, manage, and benefit from the use of their digital identity and data. We want people to claim their own digital identity, own their data, and choose what to share, when, and with whom. Our work will inform Governments and Companies as they create policies, standards, and regulations that are truly fit for the future.

FUNCTIONS

-The Foundation Secretariat administers B#Ecosystems under the oversight and guidance of the Board.

-The Foundation Executive (Secretariat) coordinates how b#ID data is stored and accessed, to ensure the B#Ecosystem operates with stability, reliability and resilience.

Donation

The Foundation seeks donations and grant funding to address
critical areas and sectors where missing, underused and fragmented

Your donation will be used in projects to connect people, make
them visible, enable mobile Internet access, and build their skills to
manage their own data.
