Solution Overview

Problem

Current data privacy protections are sector-specific and lack comprehensive mechanisms for managing consent and data sharing preferences, failing to adapt to the evolving landscape of personal information regulation and user rights.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for managing data privacy that includes a computer with processor and memory, capable of receiving and storing user preferences, and using them to control interactions based on marketing and data sharing preferences, with varying treatment for authenticated and unauthenticated users, and providing preferences to applications upstream or downstream of a data privacy application.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If sector-specific data privacy protections are implemented, then compliance with current regulations is achieved, but adaptability to evolving privacy landscape and user rights is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompliance with current regulationsVSAvoidadaptability to evolving privacy landscape
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts data processing operations based on real-time user preferences and consent settings. The data privacy application receives preference data from users and automatically modifies how data is collected, stored, and shared, enabling the system to adapt to evolving privacy requirements without requiring sector-specific rigid structures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The data privacy application serves multiple functions across different sectors by providing a unified framework for consent management and preference handling. It can process various types of user preferences (marketing, data sharing, communication) through a single platform, making it universally applicable to different industries while maintaining compliance with various regulations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If comprehensive consent management mechanisms are implemented, then user rights protection is enhanced, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive consent management capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The data privacy application acts as an intermediary between users and data processing systems. It receives preference data from users, processes their consent instructions, and translates them into actionable control signals for various data operations. This mediator approach simplifies the overall system architecture by centralizing consent management logic in one application layer

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback loops where user preferences are continuously monitored and fed back into data processing operations. The data privacy application receives preference data, processes it, and automatically adjusts data handling operations in real-time, creating a closed-loop system that reduces complexity by automating compliance checks

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If user preferences are stored and processed centrally, then consistent privacy control is achieved, but data processing requirements and computational load increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconsistent privacy controlVSAvoidcomputational load
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The data privacy application processes and stores user preferences in advance, creating pre-computed consent instructions that can be quickly applied to data operations. By preparing preference data and processing rules beforehand, the system reduces real-time computational requirements while maintaining consistent privacy control across all data processing operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
