Unlimited data collection violates European regulations and arouses opposition

There is increasing pressure to give users of online platforms, websites and apps more control over the use of their personal data and the data that they generate by using online services or connected devices.

Studies show that the majority of people that use online services, are willing to share data with the providers of those services, provided that they can exercise control over how their data will be used. This also increases trust in digital services.

How can we restore trust in digital services?

By placing users at the centre of the process. Let them manage their personal data and the data that they generate by using online services or connected devices. Within the Qiy Trust Framework, people remain anonymous, by design and by default, until the moment that they decide to share their personal preferences, interests, needs or any other data that is generated through their behaviour online.

Qiy Trust Principles

The Qiy Trust Principles define the rights of individuals that exchange data with other parties within the Qiy Trust Framework. All parties that provide services within the Qiy Trust Framework must respect these principles.

“Some journeys you do not start because you have complete certainty about the exact destination, but because you believe in the direction. Giving customers control in their digital domain is something ING stands for. An initiative as Qiy facilitates this. That’s why we decided to participate and contribute.”

“Debtors often have no overview of their personal financial situation. Filling their file is the most difficult task for them. However, debt counselors can only help if the file is complete and correct. If all relevant creditors -just like the fiKks app- are linked to the Qiy Trust Network, for debtors it is clear with 1 click what the current debt position is.”

“By embracing the Qiy Trust Framework, we don't put big (often US) data companies in charge of consumer profiles anymore but empowers the consumer itself.”
