This document lists the use-cases and requirements that motivate the development and provision of resources within the [[[DPVCG]]]. Specifically, it lists the background information that feeds into the continued development of the [[[DPV]]] and its associated resources. It draws inspiration (and methodology) from [[[SHACL-UseCases]]]. The vocabulary, and instances of use-cases and requirements are available in DPVCG GitHub repo under ./use-cases path.
The DPVCG is currently updating the specifications to v2. This document is a draft and may change as part of this process.
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 page for further information.
[[[DPV]]]: is the base/core specification for the 'Data Privacy Vocabulary', which is extended for Personal Data [[PD]], Locations [[LOC]], Risk Management [[RISK]], Technology [[TECH]], and [[AI]]. Specific [[LEGAL]] extensions are also provided which model jurisdiction specific regulations and concepts - see the complete list of extensions. To support understanding and applications of [[DPV]], various guides and resources [[GUIDES]] are provided, including a [[PRIMER]].
[[DPV]] and related resources are published on GitHub. For a general overview of the Data Protection Vocabularies and Controls Community Group [[DPVCG]], its history, deliverables, and activities - refer to DPVCG Website. For meetings, see the DPVCG calendar.
The peer-reviewed article “Creating A Vocabulary for Data Privacy” presents a historical overview of the DPVCG, and describes the methodology and structure of the DPV along with describing its creation. An open-access version can be accessed here, here, and here. The article preprint Data Privacy Vocabulary (DPV) - Version 2 describes the changes made in DPV v2.

skos:definition | An UseCase provides a description where information within the scope of DPVCG is expected to be relevant or applied, and acts as the basis for identifying requirements (including but not limited to creation of concepts). Use cases can contain descriptions of systems, their operations, actors and entities involved, restrictions or constraints, or any other pertinent detail. They can be a simple textual paragraph or elaborative structured documents (in which case we prefer to reference them here as an URL). |

skos:definition | A Requirement is a functional or non-functional requirement desirable to provided by or implemented within DPVCG's outputs, primarily the DPV and its extensions. Requirements can relate to the design of the resource, specific concepts and relations within it, provision of a resource and its documentation, or any other pertinent usage or behaviour exhibited by resources developed within the scope of the DPVCG. |
