JB: Kudos to Roy for input
16:14:46 [jeff_]
... restate compliance obligations to take into account new definition of tracking
16:15:03 [jeff_]
RF: Overview
16:15:12 [jeff_]
... take advantage of defn of tracking
16:15:16 [dsinger]
(I did the edit to the wiki, help appreciated)
16:15:20 [jeff_]
... so compliance is series of statements by server
16:15:36 [jeff_]
... defines (e.g.) what it means when server says it is not tracking, etc.
16:15:52 [jeff_]
... used Nick's version - we require minimal level of compliance in order to reference spec
16:16:34 [jeff_]
... beyond that, the rewrite discusses document scope (sec 1); section 2 (removed definitions that were in TPE)
16:16:36 [npdoty]
for what it's worth, you could still use the TPE without a compliance indicator to indicate to the user that you're tracking but not limiting to any particular set of permitted uses
16:16:41 [jeff_]
... dropped 1st and 3rd party
16:16:57 [jeff_]
... Section 3: Goes through all the cases of a server response to a DNT request
16:17:02 [jeff_]
... reqts on what they must do
16:17:14 [jeff_]
... server should state exactly what they are doing
16:17:28 [jeff_]
... use defn of tracking; not distinctions between 1st and 3rd party
16:17:36 [jeff_]
... those distinctions are still there
16:17:44 [jeff_]
... not tracking to follow users in own sites
16:18:12 [jeff_]
... data collector, collecting within own site and not referral info from other sites would say they are not tracking
16:18:17 [jeff_]
... (defined in 3.3)
16:18:35 [jeff_]
... below that is defn of tracking in DNT 0, 1, not enabled
16:18:56 [jeff_]
... This doc much smaller than TCS
16:19:16 [justin]
q?
16:19:20 [jeff_]
... could have dropped some other sections that are not needed - but I was not going to make those changes.
16:19:45 [jeff_]
JB: You said this sets "base level of compliance". How does that relate to "send disregard"?
16:20:17 [jeff_]
RF: There was a description of reqts for disregard signal
16:20:34 [jeff_]
... I put it in the bottom of compliance (needs to be consistent with reqts of TPE)
16:20:39 [jeff_]
... bottom of 3.3
16:21:02 [jeff_]
JB: 1st party and 3rd party. Is this David's notion of tunnel vision.
16:21:37 [jeff_]
... frequence capping not need to be permitted use (already within context)
16:21:55 [dsinger]
ok, tunnel vision was by party
16:21:57 [jeff_]
RF: Yes. But tunnel vision was only within a domain; here we use within a context
16:22:15 [jeff_]
DS: I'm aligned.
16:22:48 [jeff_]
RF: Our objective is to restrict knowledge outside of "here"
16:23:02 [jeff_]
DS: Dropping 1st and 3rd party is a huge advantage.

ack npd
16:23:30 [vincent]
dsinger, cause of the referrer issue I guess
16:23:54 [vincent]
first party can no longer know from where the traffic comes
16:23:56 [jeff_]
ND: Concern about tunnel vision before was we said - "Maybe we don't need permitted uses".
16:24:05 [jeff_]
... but we found we could not do it.
16:24:18 [jeff_]
... billing, incoming referrals
16:24:41 [jeff_]
... so 1st and 3rd party approach helped us talk about the distinctions.
16:25:05 [jeff_]
JB: So you are saying tunnel vision is not better; but are you saying it is worse?
16:25:24 [jeff_]
ND: David's notion that it is machine testable is not actually true.

16:25:31 [jeff_]
... It was just a decision we made
16:25:40 [jeff_]
... Based on user understanding
16:25:51 [dsinger]
OK, but practically we cannot stop data flowing within a party.
16:25:57 [jeff_]
JB: So with tunnel vision, embedded 3rd parties could pull out more?
16:26:02 [vincent]
dsinger, as I understand you can not keep the referrer with the "tunnel vision" right?
16:26:19 [jeff_]
... An ad network can pop up and collect ads - what data are you worried about?
16:26:34 [vincent]
q+
16:26:37 [jeff_]
ND: Either approach requires permitted uses
16:26:49 [jeff_]
JB: So 1st and 3rd party distinction matters.
16:26:49 [dsinger]
vincent, in my proposal, right, you cannot keep data that associates the user with any other party. referer headers, other party’s URLs, and so on
16:27:00 [jeff_]
... with tunnel vision still pretty limited
16:27:12 [jeff_]
... so what is the privacy delta?
16:27:35 [jeff_]
ND: First I was explaining the history
16:27:40 [vincent]
dsinger, I think that's why it was not adopted, publisher were afraid that they could no longer know which keyword drvie more traffic to their website
16:27:46 [jeff_]
... if the group wants to change the direction we will address issues
16:27:58 [jeff_]
... e.g. if the user meant for their data to be remembered.
16:28:12 [jeff_]
... previously we used first part context.
16:28:25 [dsinger]
vincent, not sure I follow, we should pursue this in email

16:30:57 [jeff_]

16:31:30 [jeff_]
... regulators apply that type of test
16:31:31 [justin]
q?
16:31:40 [dsinger]
agree with Roy, if someone’s data gets leaked, and we find records that link users to other parties, we have a clear prima facie violation
16:31:57 [jeff_]
JB: How does this treat headers for what we called 1st parties?
16:32:19 [jeff_]
... web sites log where people come from, even if tracking is turned off
16:32:29 [jeff_]
... would that impact tunnel vision approach?
16:32:37 [jeff_]
RF: Yes, it is affected.
16:32:51 [jeff_]
... permitted uses for financial logging, added a phrase.
16:32:53 [fielding]
This may include counting ad impressions to unique visitors, verifying positioning and quality of ad impressions, tracking referrals and conversion to the extent necessary to account for an agreed bounty program, and auditing compliance with this and other standards.
16:33:12 [jeff_]
... I made that explicit for actual financial transaction
16:33:20 [jeff_]
... also for general web page analytics
16:33:31 [jeff_]
... should be OK to track referral links to a page if not tied to user
16:33:47 [jeff_]
... folks that do analytics will be terribly upset for this suggestion
16:34:07 [WileyS]
Aggregation vs. user level tracking. Issue is that you need to start with the raw log file with user specific elements to ensure you double count the same user for the same referrer.
16:34:08 [jeff_]
... user that does not want to be tracked does not want to be tracked between adjacent as much as 3 different sites.
16:34:09 [npdoty]
I'm not sure why web analytics is a less common case than paid referrals for advertising
16:34:20 [jeff_]
... shouldn't have exception for web analytics.
16:34:30 [jeff_]
... should dissasociate refered data from user.
16:34:42 [WileyS]
Roy - you can't remove the user until aggregation has occurred.
16:34:50 [jeff_]
... can't track individual user (if not for financial reasons)
16:34:51 [dsinger]
agree with Roy. “I get 2,000 visitors a day from IBM” and “Roy was here yesterday”, but they are distinct records

16:38:02 [jeff_]
... we are getting far afield
16:38:11 [jeff_]
... it will cause the demise of DNT
16:38:30 [jeff_]
RF: From the perspective of "adoption" it helps to have a spec they can adopt.
16:38:40 [jeff_]
... I appreciate that we want compliance from day 1.
16:38:53 [npdoty]
q+ to ask about defining requirements (1st/3rd; or additional requirements on the definition of tracking)
16:38:56 [jeff_]
... but it does no good to have people say they adopted DNT - but they are still tracking.
16:39:07 [WileyS]
Based on Roy's conception of "Tracking" - far too broad at this point based on where we started as a group in my opinion.
16:39:17 [jeff_]
... my preference is that immediate referral data is allowed.
16:39:34 [jeff_]
... based on what we want to achieve - we have a protocol that can communicate the options.
16:39:53 [jeff_]
... we won't get instant adoption
16:40:00 [justin]
ack ds
16:40:01 [jeff_]
... this won't prevent them
16:40:17 [WileyS]
If no one adopts there is no value to adoption for others. Same issue for P3P - if we don't all adopt then there is no motivation for anyone to adopt.
16:40:23 [dsinger]
I was merely going to note that we still need a short-term retention definition (the ‘roach motel’ with only 3 exits)
16:40:24 [jeff_]
DS: @@@ sounds muffled
16:40:35 [vincent]
WileyS, it would be enough for web analytics provider to adapt to DNT, website publishers would not have much to do (if anything)
16:40:49 [WileyS]
Short-term? How short? Monthly and quarterly aggregate roll-ups?

npdoty, you wanted to ask about defining requirements (1st/3rd; or additional requirements on the definition of tracking)
16:41:13 [dsinger]
to WileyS, not that this deals with your issue
16:41:19 [wseltzer]
WileyS, on the other hand, there's a question what the signal communicates, whether or not it's listened to
16:41:24 [jeff_]
Nick: Trying to get around the concern
16:41:48 [jeff_]
... Now we want to limit our scope on tracking - but then we state here is how you comply as a 1st or 3rd party.
16:41:55 [dsinger]
notes that we might not expect many ‘first parties’ to try to or claim compliance, and maybe users are OK with that as an initial state
16:42:00 [fielding]
right, we could exclude "immediate referral data" (which includes headers and URI tokens) from the notion of tracking, but it would be much harder to defend
16:42:02 [jeff_]
... Roy's approach goes back to definition of tracking
16:42:05 [WileyS]
Vincent, those that use 3rd parties (like Adobe), I agree. Anyone who uses their own tracking packages or internal reporting schemes from logs won't be helped.
16:42:09 [jeff_]
... but then - what about things that are out of scope
16:42:19 [dsinger]
q+
16:42:20 [jeff_]
... refers header, link where user came from
16:42:45 [jeff_]
... easier way is to look at other examples for different contexts
16:43:08 [jeff_]
... alternative - look at Roy's new text for 3.3 - elaboration for definition of tracking
16:43:20 [fielding]
yep
16:43:25 [jeff_]
... requirements on defn of tracking
16:43:43 [vincent]
WileyS, I don't think there are a lot of publishers who use internal tools, most use existing tools (Adobe, GA, ...)
16:43:47 [jeff_]
JB: So compliance obligations would be written to make exceptions for what people do?
16:43:54 [moneill2]
+q
16:44:01 [jeff_]
... Roy is saying that we are telling 1st parties not to accept refer headers.
16:44:38 [jeff_]

16:44:43 [WileyS]
Vincent, I don't believe that's true. I'll try to dig up an analytics survey from last year - showed a much higher number (relative percentage) of "self-serve" models in play than you may imagine.

Note - only 19 participants on today's call. 1 of those being a co-chair and 2 being editors. If we see this dramatic of a drop in attention to this standard, why do we think developing a standard that all web servers globally would need to implement would be adopted?

Vincent - I'll try to find it again - over a year ago. if you could dig up metrics to back up your statement that only 3rd party tools are used that would be helpful as well.
16:48:05 [jeff_]
Mike: Not just refer headers. But I agree w David. Add special cases.
16:48:14 [fielding]
I think it is a legitimate concern that "all websites" do some amount of "tracking" if we include immediate referral data as tracking data. However, that doesn't make it easier to explain to a user that doesn't want tracking. Is referral data okay for the DNT:1 user?

16:49:56 [fielding]
WileyS, there is nothing in our specs that requires all servers to implement. They only need to implement if they say they do.

Roy, but if very few servers ever adopt a standard then it fades quickly - much like P3P. Standards only work when there is high adoption - otherwise why have a standard.
16:51:01 [jeff_]
Nick: Machine-readable - your statement is that user agent might not expect DNT from 1st party
16:51:05 [jeff_]
... so less important
16:51:16 [jeff_]
... but not easy to see in practice
16:51:22 [jeff_]

16:51:32 [jeff_]

16:51:52 [fielding]
WileyS, in that case, you don't need to concern yourself about what that non-standard said.
16:52:16 [jeff_]
JB: Where in Roy's spec is data append prohibited?
16:52:31 [WileyS]
Roy, fair, if we want to build a standard that no one will adopt then there is no need to be concerned with that standard.

Nick: In 3.3 where he elaborates on defn of tracking
16:52:36 [moneill2]
using data collected about another context
16:52:38 [npdoty]
An origin server that sends a TSV of N (not tracking) MUST NOT engage tracking if a similar request is made to the designated resource while that tracking status remains fresh. In other words, the party MUST NOT knowingly collect, retain, use, or share data from a network interaction with the designated resource that would allow that party to associate the same user with tracking data it has previously obtained from user activity in other contexts, MUST NOT retain,
16:52:38 [npdoty]
use, or share data derived from this user activity outside the context in which this activity occurred, and MUST NOT tailor or personalize the response from the designated resource based on data derived from this user's activity in other contexts (aside from contextual data provided by the user in the current request).
16:52:43 [jeff_]
... first paragraph
16:52:46 [jeff_]
RF: Yes.
16:53:38 [jeff_]
JB: I thought for CfO for data append you said no!
16:53:48 [jeff_]
RF: This is about using the information in responding to request.
16:53:52 [WileyS]
Can someone provide an example of data append where they user has not given consent and/or its not public data?
16:54:07 [jeff_]
... If user has DNT=1, they would not get data about their interactions at other sites mixed in at this site.
16:54:35 [jeff_]
JB: But if I send NYT my Yahoo address with DNT=1 with that prohibit searching email address for data broker?
16:54:48 [jeff_]

RF: FB can be either 1st party, 3rd party, or talk about their own data
17:02:01 [jeff_]
... FB should be able to track if they have consent to do so.
17:02:04 [moneill2]
and they can get consent easier than the others
17:02:13 [jeff_]
JB: They can't use behavioral data.

17:02:53 [npdoty]

JB: I could be wrong...
17:11:06 [fielding]
npdoty, quick editorial improvements would be to adopt section 1 and section 2 (but add links for defn of first party and third party), and then adopt the organization of section 3 (3.1, 3.2, 3.5, and 3.6 can be used verbatim)
17:11:29 [jeff_]

17:11:29 [npdoty]
