Using the PDC-GOOD 0.9 Public Beta Agreement by Customer Commons

The PDC-GOOD 0.9 public beta describes terms for processing personal data for public benefit. Its detailed policy prohibits service analytics, tracking, profiling, and third-party sharing. These considerations are informational, are not exhaustive, and do not form part of the agreement.

Do not use the covered data for service analytics, tracking, profiling, or third-party sharing.

Human-Readable Summary (Plain English)

This policy puts you, the individual, in control of how your personal data is used. You’re offering your data with clear terms — and an organization must agree to those terms if they want to use it.

What You’re Agreeing To

We’ll only use your data to deliver services for public good.
- Your data can be processed, but only when it benefits the public — no private exploitation.
- That includes data generated from your use of the service, but only under your terms.

What We’re Not Allowed To Do

We won’t use your data for analytics.
- We’re not allowed to analyze your information for performance or business metrics.
We won’t track you across services or sessions.
- No monitoring your behavior beyond the immediate service.
We won’t profile you.
- No automated decisions based on your personal traits or behaviors.
We won’t share your personal data with third parties.
- Your data stays between you and us — no reselling or external use.

If There’s a Conflict

If anything’s unclear, this policy follows the rule: permissions override prohibitions, which means if something is both allowed and disallowed, it is considered allowed.
